1 Corinthians 3:3-17

3for you are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, aren’t you worldly and walking in a human way?

4For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere humans?

5What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? Servants through whom you came to trust—and to each as the Lord gave.

6I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.

7So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who makes things grow.

8Now he who plants and he who waters work as one, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.

9For we are God’s co-workers; you are God’s field, God’s building.

10According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation, and another builds on it. But let each consider carefully how he builds on it.

11For no one can lay any other foundation than what is already laid—which is Yeshua the Messiah.

12Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,

13each one’s work will become clear. For the Day will show it, because it is to be revealed by fire; and the fire itself will test each one’s work—what sort it is.

14If anyone’s work built on the foundation survives, he will receive a reward.

15If anyone’s work is burned up, he will suffer loss—he himself will be saved, but as through fire.

16Don’t you know that you are God’s temple and that the Ruach Elohim dwells among you?

17If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, and you are that temple.
