What man hath known the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? Even so the things of God knoweth no one, but the Spirit of God. The animal man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness unto him, and he cannot know them (1 Corinthians 2:11, 14).

He spoke this of the Spirit, which they that believe on Him should receive; the Holy Spirit was not yet; because Jesus was not yet glorified (John 7:39).
The Holy Spirit is called the Spirit of truth (John 14:17). He is also called the Comforter, and Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name (John 14:26).
If I went not away, the Comforter would not come unto you; if I go away I will send him unto you (John 16:7). By going away to the Father is meant to be united to the Father, as before, the Divine truth to the Divine. That the Spirit of truth from the Lord is about to receive, etc. (John 16:13-15).
1 Corinthians 12:7-21
7
But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all.
8
For to one is given through the Spirit the word of wisdom, and to another the word of knowledge, according to the same Spirit;
9
to another faith, by the same Spirit; and to another gifts of healings, by the same Spirit;
10
and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; to another different kinds of languages; and to another the interpretation of languages.
11
But the one and the same Spirit works all of these, distributing to each one separately as he desires.
12
For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.
13
For in one Spirit we were all baptized into one body, whether Jews or Greeks, whether bond or free; and were all given to drink into one Spirit.
14
For the body is not one member, but many.
15
If the foot would say, "Because I'm not the hand, I'm not part of the body," it is not therefore not part of the body.
16
If the ear would say, "Because I'm not the eye, I'm not part of the body," it's not therefore not part of the body.
17
If the whole body were an eye, where would the hearing be? If the whole were hearing, where would the smelling be?
18
But now God has set the members, each one of them, in the body, just as he desired.
19
If they were all one member, where would the body be?
20
But now they are many members, but one body.
21
The eye can't tell the hand, "I have no need for you," or again the head to the feet, "I have no need for you."
