I wrote: "According to orthodox biblical Christianity:

The sovereign God can only be seen through the eyes of those who have the mind of Christ:

Paul: "For who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him? But we (the regenerate brethren) have the mind of Christ [1 Cor.2:16]

Jesus: "... for ONE is your Master, [even] Christ; and you are ALL brethren." [Matt. 23:8]

Paul: "The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual man (one of "the brethren" in whom is the Holy Spirit) makes judgements about all things, but he, himself is not subject to __ANY__ man's judgement". [1 Cor.2:14]"

You replied: Since there are many versions of this, which one is true?

And I ask, what are the other versions? For each Scripture reference above, list the other "versions" or "interpretations" of it.

"the regenerate" is your interpolation. "We" could be the Church, and it is, in the case of this letter, the church in Corinth, at least those who are spiritual, rather than "carnal. " Paul starts out by expressing his concern with the divisions in the church. Then after contrasting the spiritual and the carnal , in Chapter 3 let's them have it with both barrels.
