Gregory Thaumaturgus

Section 12

About this work

Author: Gregory Thaumaturgus

XII.

Again, in the Epistle to the Corinthians

‹ Section 11 Section 13 ›

he

says

:

“

For

my

speech

and

my

preaching

was

not

in

the

enticing

words

of

man’s

wisdom

,

but

in

demonstration

of

the

Spirit

and

of

power

;

that

your

faith

should

not

stand

in

the

wisdom

of

men

,

but

in

the

power

of

God

.

”

And

again

he

says

:

“

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

.

But

God

hath

revealed

them

unto

us

by

His

Spirit

:

for

the

Spirit

searcheth

all

things

,

yea

,

the

deep

things

of

God

.

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

.

”

And

again

he

says

:

“

But

the

natural

man

receiveth

not

the

things

of

the

Spirit

of

God

.
