1 Corinthians 3:3-17

3forG1063 you areG1510 stillG2089 worldlyG4559. ForG1063 sinceG3699 there is jealousyG2205 andG2532 dissensionG2054 amongG1722 youG4771, are youG1510 notG3780 worldlyG4559? Are you not walkingG4043 in the way ofG2596 manG444? 4ForG1063 whenG3752 oneG5100 of you saysG3004, “IG1473 follow PaulG3972,” andG1161 anotherG2087, “IG1473 follow ApollosG625,” are youG1510 notG3756 mere menG444?

5WhatG5101 thenG3767 isG1510 ApollosG625? AndG1161 whatG5101 isG1510 PaulG3972? They are servantsG1249 throughG1223 whomG3739 you believedG4100, asG5613 theG3588 LordG2962 has assignedG1325 to eachG1538 his role. 6IG1473 plantedG5452 the seed and ApollosG625 wateredG4222 it, butG235 GodG2316 made it growG837. 7SoG5620 neitherG3777 he whoG3588 plantsG5452 norG3777 he whoG3588 watersG4222 isG1510 anythingG5100, butG235 only GodG2316, whoG3588 makes things growG837. 8He whoG3588 plantsG5452 andG2532 he whoG3588 watersG4222 areG1510 oneG1520 in purpose,1 andG1161 eachG1538 will be rewardedG2983G3588G2398G3408 according toG2596 his ownG2398 laborG2873. 9ForG1063 we areG1510 God’sG2316 fellow workersG4904; you areG1510 God’sG2316 fieldG1091, God’sG2316 buildingG3619.

10ByG2596 theG3588 graceG5485 GodG2316 has givenG1325 meG1473, I laidG5087 a foundationG2310 asG5613 an expertG4680 builderG753, andG1161 someone elseG243 is building onG2026 it. ButG1161 each oneG1538 must be carefulG991 howG4459 he buildsG2026. 11ForG1063 no oneG3762 canG1410 layG5087 aG243 foundationG2310 other thanG3844 theG3588 one already laidG2749, whichG3739 isG1510 JesusG2424 ChristG5547.

IfG1487 anyoneG5100 buildsG2026 onG1909 this foundationG2310 using goldG5557, silverG696, preciousG5093 stonesG3037, woodG3586, hayG5528, or strawG2562, 13hisG1538 workmanshipG2041 will beG1096 evidentG5318, becauseG1063 theG3588 DayG2250 will bring it to lightG1213. It will be revealedG601 withG1722 fireG4442, andG2532 theG3588 fireG4442 will proveG1381 the qualityG3697G1510 of eachG1538 man’s workG2041. 14IfG1487 what he has builtG2041G5100G3739G2026 survivesG3306, he will receiveG2983 a rewardG3408. 15IfG1487 it is burned upG2618, he will suffer lossG2210. He himselfG846 will be savedG4982, but onlyG1161 as ifG5613 throughG1223 the flamesG4442.

16Do you not knowG3756G1492 thatG3754 you yourselves areG1510 God’sG2316 templeG3485, and thatG2532 God’sG2316 SpiritG4151 dwellsG3611 inG17222 youG4771? 17IfG1487 anyoneG5100 destroysG5351 God’sG2316 templeG3485, GodG2316 will destroyG5351 himG3778; forG1063 God’sG2316 templeG3485 isG1510 holyG40, and youG4771 areG1510 that temple.
