1 Corinthians 2:12 in Context — 1 Corinthians 2
10 Mas Deus as revelou para nós pelo seu Espírito. Porque o Espírito investiga todas as coisas, até as profundezas de Deus.
11 Pois quem dentre os seres humanos sabe as coisas do ser humano, senão o espírito do ser humano que nele está? Assim também ninguém sabe as coisas de Deus, senão o Espírito de Deus.
12 Nós, porém, não recebemos o espírito do mundo, mas sim, o Espírito que provém de Deus; para que saibamos as coisas que por Deus nos são dadas;
13 as quais também falamos, não com palavras que a sabedoria ensina, mas com as que o Espírito Santo ensina, interpretando [coisas] espirituais por [meios] espirituais.
14 Mas o ser humano natural não compreende as coisas que são do Espírito de Deus, porque lhe são loucura; e não as pode entender, porque se compreendem espiritualmente.
