1 Corinthians 3:1-9 ▼

1 And I, brothers, was not able to speak to you as to spiritual men, but as to fleshly men, as to infants in Christ.

2 I gave you milk to drink, not solid food, for you were not yet able to receive it. Indeed, even now you are still not able,

3 for 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 For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not mere men?

5 What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, even as the Lord gave to each one.

6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God was causing the growth.

7 So then neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but God who causes the growth.

8 Now he who plants and he who waters are one, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

9 For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, God’s building.
