13 We don’t speak about these things using teachings that are based on intellectual arguments like people do. Instead, we use the Spirit’s teachings. We explain spiritual things to those who have the Spirit.
14 A person who isn’t spiritual doesn’t accept the teachings of God’s Spirit. He thinks they’re nonsense. He can’t understand them because a person must be spiritual to evaluate them.
15 Spiritual people evaluate everything but are subject to no one’s evaluation.
16 “Who has known the mind of the Lordso that he can teach him?”However, we have the mind of Christ.
