1 Corinthians 3:1-9 ▼

1 So, brothers and sisters, I could not speak to you as spiritual people, but instead as people of the flesh, as infants in Christ.

2 I fed you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready. In fact, you are still not ready,

3 for you are still influenced by the flesh. For since there is still jealousy and dissension among you, are you not influenced by the flesh and behaving like unregenerate people?

4 For whenever someone says, |I am with Paul,| or |I am with Apollos,| are you not merely human?

5 What is Apollos, really? Or what is Paul? Servants through whom you came to believe, and each of us in the ministry the Lord gave us.

6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God caused it to grow.

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

8 The one who plants and the one who waters work as one, but each will receive his reward according to his work.

9 We are coworkers belonging to God. You are God's field, God's building.
