For who among men knows the things of a man, except the spirit of a man within him? So also no one has known the things of God except the Spirit of God.

But we have not received the spirit of the world, but the Spirit from God, so that we might know the things that are freely given to us by God.

So as neither he planting is anything, nor he watering, but God making to grow.

Or does He say it altogether because of us? It is written because of us, so that the one plowing ought to plow in hope, and the one threshing in hope to partake of hope.
