1 Corinthians 3:6

4 For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?

Watering, Working, Warning

5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ^aministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one?

6 ^aI planted, ^bApollos watered, ^cbut God gave the increase.

7 So then ^aneither 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 one, ^aand each one will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

9 For ^awe are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field, you are ^bGod’s building.

10 ^aAccording to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid ^bthe foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it.

11 For no other foundation can anyone lay than ^athat which is laid, ^bwhich is Jesus Christ.
