Who is the 'spiritual' person in 1 Corinthians 2:15?
The spiritual person in 1 Corinthians 2:15 is the one who has been regenerated by the work and power of God as a result of believing the Gospel. Such a person discerns all things, having the capability to compare and choose spiritual truths, unlike the natural, intellectual person.
Les explains that the spiritual person is not the natural, intellectual man, but one who has been regenerated by the work and power of God through believing the Gospel. Paul taught that his words were inspired by the Holy Spirit, not by human wisdom. The natural mind sees God's Word as foolishness, but the spiritual person discerns all things, having the ability to compare and choose spiritual truths, much like selecting items in a supermarket.
But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
