1 Corinthians 3:5-15

MNT(i) 5 What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Just ministers through whom you have believed, and each doing the work that the Lord gave him. 6 I planted, Apollos watered, but God made the seed grow. 7 So neither is he who planted anything, nor he who watered, but God alone, who is making the seed grow. 8 Now, though he who plants and he who waters are one, each will receive his own reward, according to his own service. 9 For we are God's fellow workers; and you are God's field, you are God's building. 10 According to the grace of God vouchsafed me, like a skillful master-builder, I have laid a foundation; but another will be building upon it. Let each take heed how he builds on it. 11 The foundation is already laid—Jesus Christ—and no man can lay another. 12 On that foundation, if a man proceeds to build gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble, each man's work will be made manifest. 13 The Day will disclose it, for it dawns in fire, and the fire will test each man's work, of what quality it is. 14 If any man's work—the building he has made—stands the test, he will be rewarded. 15 If any man's work is burned up, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, as it were through the flames.
