1 Corinthians Chapter 3
1 | And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ. | 2 | I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able to bear it, neither yet now are ye able. | 3 | For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? | 4 | For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal? | 5 | Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? | 6 | I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. | 7 | So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. | 8 | Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. | 9 | For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building. | 10 | According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. | 11 | For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. | 12 | Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; | 13 | Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. | 14 | If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. | 15 | If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire. | 16 | Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? | 17 | If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are. | 18 | Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. | 19 | For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness. | 20 | And again, The Lord knoweth the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. | 21 | Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; | 22 | Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; | 23 | And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's. |
