“But he that is spiritual judgeth all things”.

This verse refers to the Christian’s internal witness to the truths of Christianity, not in all the thorny matters, but in the essentials, and in his ability to discern when the Gospel is preached and when it is not, and to whom he owes his salvation to (Christ alone). Then it continues:

“yet he himself is judged of no man,” that is, the ungodly cannot discern what manner of men we are. They cannot comprehend us in the same way the damned are incapable of comprehending Christ, for “we have the mind of Christ,” and therefore think spiritually, and are not of this world, but are the enemies of it.

I see nothing to disagree with here.
