1 Corinthians 2:10-16 (New American Standard Bible)
10For to us God revealed them through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the depths of God.
11For who among men knows the thoughts of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so the thoughts of God no one knows except the Spirit of God.
12Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God,
13which things we also speak, not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, combining spiritual thoughts with spiritual words.
14But a natural man does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually appraised.
15But he who is spiritual appraises all things, yet he himself is appraised by no one.
16For WHO HAS KNOWN THE MIND OF THE LORD, THAT HE WILL INSTRUCT HIM? But we have the mind of Christ.

Amen! God's Word, NOT human wisdom!
Another particular passage I really like is Philippians Chapter 2, beginning with "Let this mind be in you which was in Christ Jesus". I've read it hundreds of times and it always touches me. Matter of fact, when I met Shane, one of the first things I did was grabbed my Bible and we shared that scripture together! Praise God!
God Bless. Doug P.
