Blog Entry: 1 Cor 2:6-12 6 ¶ Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: 7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 8 which none of the rulers of this age knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 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. 10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. 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. 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. In veses 7-9 we see God was thinking of us Before the Foundation of the world!!! God was thinking of us!!!!!!! Kinda like a husband who is thinking of his wife and plans out after work, that he is going to pick up some flowers!!!! He prepared something.....he was thinking before hand and executed his plan......But first he was thinking of her.....God thinks of us and thought of us!!! He prepared for us to be given His wisdom......and that is better than flowers!!! In verses 10-12 We see how and where His wisdom comes from. I will use my wife to illistrate this. No one really knows my wifeexcept Priscilla......{and God of course}Those inner things of my wife....the dark secrets.....the longings and desires of her heart......the Joys.....the dreams etc.....are only really known by her. Paul uses a human illustration to make a point. 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. Just as no one knows the inner deep thoughts of my wife........so is the same with God except the Spirit of God........This is where it gets cool!!!!!! God Has given us His innermost part.......Huh?......Yep!!!!!......God has given us His Spirit! He has given us His widom through His spirit!!!!! 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 How cool is that!!!!!
