The Spirit knows all things, the deep things of God.

1 Cor.
{2:9} But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.
{2:10} But God hath revealed [them] unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
{2:11} For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
{2:12} Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
{2:13} Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
{2:14} But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them,] because they are spiritually discerned.
{2:15} But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
{2:16} For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

Neither have entered into the heart of man.


The natural man we are, apart from the spiritual part of us that longs for the connection with something more, cannot understand, cannot comprehend the things of God. It's not possible that a man apart from the Holy Spirit can comprehend. It's like learning another language- it's pure gibberish holding no meaning whatsoever until comprehension is brought about from one who knows, or something that teaches. Left to our own devices do we naturally learns how to read? Do we naturally know how to do math? Is the structure of language something we understand all on our own? Do we naturally know how to tie our laces? How to tie a necktie? How to knit a blanket, mend a shirt. Do we know how to go into another human being's body and operate on them? Do we know how to fight for the rights of a person if we don't know the law?


The heart of man does not fully understand anything of God, but God reveals to us by HIS Spirit the things He chooses.


The Spirit knows all things, the deep things of God.


Man knows the evil within him, man's spirit the thing we know makes us who we are in the natural sense, yes, we know the ways of ourselves, our natural inclinations and they are not naturally inclined towards God.


The things of God man doesn't know, but the Spirit of God knows. We when accept Christ as our Savior, God as our Creator, we don't receive the spirit of man, tht is already ours. What we receive is the Spirit of God that we can understand what God gives to us as His creatures. Man's wisdom cannot teach God's wisdom. Man can be brilliant in the spirit of man knowing all there is to know in a natural sense but man doesn't know God's ways until the Holy Ghost teaches us. The spiritual with the spiritual. We receive the ability to comprehend the spiritual things of God. This isn't something we are naturally given in fact to those who are not inclined to listen to the Holy Spirit the things of the Spirit of God are FOOLISHNESS to them, and they cannot know them. So if you wonder why others don't understands, if you wonder why they can talk circles of seeming logic around your faith poking holes it it until you are forced to succumb to their natural understanding that's why. As they poke holes and doubts begin to form in your mind it's because the natural man inside us all can't understand the spiritual things of God. We really aren't forced to succumb are we? We can cling to our faith in God, to the spiritual things that have been revealed to us through the Holy Spirit. We can acknowledge the very fact that not all will understand and many will not understand at all.


{2:15} But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
{2:16} For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.


Christ judges all things, and is judged of no man. Christ alone lives in the spiritual relying upon God for all things. The Holy Spirit sent to us by Jesus to live with us and bring us hope, understanding, encouragement all things we need Spiritually from God to be God's through Jesus, this Holy Spirit alone can give us the mind of Christ- the understanding that God is all things and God's way are not our ways but God's ways are the true ways. Having the mind of Christ is everything, and we truly can have the same mind through Christ. The Holy Spirit will teach us and through faith we believe not because it makes sense to the natural man within us, but because it is Spiritually true.


Faith, hope, love. Choosing to love God is the first step. Leaping by faith the next. Faith is hope when we can't see.


May God send His Holy Spirit to live in us now and always until Jesus returns again. By the grace and mercy of God may we let the Holy Spirit work in us giving us Spiritual understanding, teaching us everything we need to know of God.


By the mercy and grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, now and forever.


Amen.
