## Jesus Christ, Our Foundation
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 10
|
||
|
|
According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 11
|
||
|
|
For no one can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 12
|
||
|
|
Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 13
|
||
|
|
each man's work will become evident, for the day will indicate it because it is revealed with fire, and the fire itself will test the quality of each man's work.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 14
|
||
|
|
If any man's work which he has built on it remains, he will receive a reward.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 15
|
||
|
|
If any man's work is burned up, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 16
|
||
|
|
Do you not know that you are a sanctuary of God and _that_ the Spirit of God dwells in you?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 17
|
||
|
|
If any man destroys the sanctuary of God, God will destroy him, for the sanctuary of God is holy, and that is what you are.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 18
|
||
|
|
Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you thinks that he is wise in this age, he must become foolish, so that he may become wise.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 19
|
||
|
|
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written, "_He is_ the one who catches the wise in their craftiness";
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 20
|
||
|
|
and again, "The Lord knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are useless."
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 21
|
||
|
|
So then let no one boast in men. For all things belong to you,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 22
|
||
|
|
whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or things present or things to come; all things belong to you,
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
###### 23
|
||
|
|
and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.
