1 Corinthians 3:1-9
1
Brothers, I couldn't speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly, as to babies in Christ.
2
I fed you with milk, not with meat; for you weren't yet ready. Indeed, not even now are you ready,
3
for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, aren't you fleshly, and don't you walk in the ways of men?
4
For when one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," aren't you fleshly?
5
Who then is Apollos, and who is Paul, but servants through whom you believed; and each as the Lord gave to him?
6
I planted. Apollos watered. But God gave the increase.
7
So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.
8
Now he who plants and he who waters are the same, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
9
For we are God's fellow workers. You are God's farming, God's building.
