1 Corinthians 2:7
But we give the news of the secret wisdom of God, which he had kept in store before the world came into existence, for our glory;
1 Corinthians 2:8
Of which not one of the rulers of this world had knowledge: for if they had, they would not have put the Lord of glory on the cross:
1 Corinthians 2:9
But as it says in the holy Writings, Things which the eye saw not, and which had not come to the ears or into the heart of man, such things as God has made ready for those who have love for him.

Ephesians 3:3
How by revelation the secret was made clear to me, as I said before in a short letter,

1 Corinthians 3:1
And the teaching I gave you, my brothers, was such as I was able to give, not to those who have the Spirit, but to those who are still in the flesh, even to children in Christ.
1 Corinthians 3:2
I gave you milk and not meat, because you were, then, unable to take it, and even now you are not able;
Hebrews 5:12
And though by this time it would be right for you to be teachers, you still have need of someone to give you teaching about the first simple rules of God's revelation; you have become like babies who have need of milk, and not of solid food.
Hebrews 5:13
For everyone who takes milk is without experience of the word of righteousness: he is a child.
Hebrews 5:14
But solid food is for men of full growth, even for those whose senses are trained by use to see what is good and what is evil.
1 Corinthians 14:20
My brothers, do not be children in mind: in evil be as little children, but in mind be of full growth.
Ephesians 4:13
Till we all come to the harmony of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to full growth, to the full measure of Christ:
Ephesians 4:14
So that we may be no longer children, sent this way and that, turned about by every wind of teaching, by the twisting and tricks of men, by the deceits of error;
Colossians 1:28
Whom we are preaching; guiding and teaching every man in all wisdom, so that every man may be complete in Christ;
Hebrews 6:1
For this reason let us go on from the first things about Christ to full growth; not building again that on which it is based, that is, the turning of the heart from dead works, and faith in God,
Luke 12:42
And the Lord said, Who then is the wise and responsible servant whom his lord will put in control of his family, to give them their food at the right time?
1 Peter 2:2
Be full of desire for the true milk of the word, as babies at their mothers' breasts, so that you may go on to salvation;
-----
Philippians 3:12
Not as if I had even now got the reward or been made complete: but I go on in the hope that I may come to the knowledge of that for which I was made the servant of Christ Jesus.
Philippians 3:13
Brothers, it is clear to me that I have not come to that knowledge; but one thing I do, letting go those things which are past, and stretching out to the things which are before,
Philippians 3:14
I go forward to the mark, even the reward of the high purpose of God in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 3:15

And after you have undergone pain for a little time, the God of all grace who has given you a part in his eternal glory through Christ Jesus, will himself give you strength and support, and make you complete in every good thing;
-----
1 Corinthians 1:19
As it says in the holy Writings, I will put an end to the wisdom of the wise, and will put on one side the designs of those who have knowledge.
1 Corinthians 1:20
Where is the wise? where is he who has knowledge of the law? where is the man of this world who has a love of discussion? has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
1 Corinthians 1:21
For because, by the purpose of God, the world, with all its wisdom, had not the knowledge of God, it was God's pleasure, by so foolish a thing as preaching, to give salvation to those who had faith in him.

Let no man have a false idea. If any man seems to himself to be wise among you, let him become foolish, so that he may be wise.

Let no man take your reward from you by consciously making little of himself and giving worship to angels; having his thoughts fixed on the things which he has seen, being foolishly lifted up in his natural mind,
-----
1 Corinthians 1:26
For you see God's design for you, my brothers, that he has not taken a great number of the wise after the flesh, not the strong, not the noble:
1 Corinthians 1:27
But God made selection of the foolish things of this world so that he might put the wise to shame; and the feeble things that he might put to shame the strong;
1 Corinthians 1:28
And the low things of the world, and the things without honour, did God make selection of, yes, even the things which are not, so that he might make as nothing the things which are:

-----
1 Corinthians 2:1
And when I came to you, my brothers, I did not come with wise words of knowledge, putting before you the secret of God.
1 Corinthians 2:4
And in my preaching there were no honeyed words of wisdom, but I was dependent on the power of the Spirit to make it clear to you:
