1 Corinthians 3:1-9 ▼

1 And I, brethren, have not been able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly; as to babes in Christ.

2 I have given you milk to drink, not meat, for ye have not yet been able, nor indeed are ye yet able;

3 for ye are yet carnal. For whereas [there are] among you emulation and strife, are ye not carnal, and walk according to man?

4 For when one says, I am of Paul, and another, I of Apollos, are ye not men?

5 Who then is Apollos, and who Paul? Ministering servants, through whom ye have believed, and as the Lord has given to each.

6 I have planted; Apollos watered; but God has given the increase.

7 So that neither the planter is anything, nor the waterer; but God the giver of the increase.

8 But the planter and the waterer are one; but each shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

9 For we are God's fellow-workmen; ye are God's husbandry, God's building.
