1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to men of flesh, as to infants in Christ.
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2I gave you milk to drink, not solid food; for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are not yet able,
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3for you are still fleshly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not fleshly, and are you not walking like mere men?
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not mere men?
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, even as the Lord gave opportunity to each one.
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6I planted, Apollos watered, but God was causing the growth.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7So then neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but God who causes the growth.
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8Now he who plants and he who waters are one; but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it.
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12[an error occurred while processing this directive]12Now if any man builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,
13[an error occurred while processing this directive]13each man's work will become evident; for the day will show it because it is to be revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each man's work.
14[an error occurred while processing this directive]14If any man's work which he has built on it remains, he will receive a reward.
15[an error occurred while processing this directive]15If any man's work is burned up, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
16[an error occurred while processing this directive]16Do you not know that you are a temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
17[an error occurred while processing this directive]17If any man destroys the temple of God, God will destroy him, for the temple of God is holy, and that is what you are.
18[an error occurred while processing this directive]18Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become foolish, so that he may become wise.
19[an error occurred while processing this directive]19For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written, "He is THE ONE WHO CATCHES THE WISE IN THEIR CRAFTINESS";
20[an error occurred while processing this directive]20and again, "THE LORD KNOWS THE REASONINGS of the wise, THAT THEY ARE USELESS."
21[an error occurred while processing this directive]21So then let no one boast in men. For all things belong to you,
22[an error occurred while processing this directive]22whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come; all things belong to you,
23[an error occurred while processing this directive]23and you belong to Christ; and Christ belongs to God.
