I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.

So then neither he who plants, nor he who waters deserves the credit; but God who gives the increase.

For we work together with God: you are God''s work and God''s building.

According to the grace of God which is given to me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another builds upon it. But let every man be careful how he builds thereon.

Do you not know that you are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?

And whoever defiles the temple of God, God will destroy; for the temple of God is holy, and that temple is you.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness before God. For it is written, He catches the wise in their own craftiness.

And you are of Christ, and Christ is of God.

THIS is the way you should consider us: as the servants of Christ, and stewards of the mysteries of God.

Therefore do not judge before the time, until the LORD comes, and brings to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveals the thoughts of the hearts; then shall every man have praise from God.

For a long time you have been full and enriched, and you have waxed strong without our counsel. And I would to God you were as kings, so that we also might share with you.

For I think God has placed us, the apostles, last as if we were condemned to death: for we have become a spectacle to the world, and to angels, and to men.

For the kingdom of God is not in the word, but in power.

God will judge the outsiders. Therefore, put away from among yourselves those wicked persons.

Do you not know that the wicked shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not misled: neither the immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor the corrupt, nor men who lie down with males,

Nor extortioners, nor thieves, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor grafters, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

And some of these evils were to be found in some of you, but you have been cleansed, and have been sanctified, and made righteous in the name of our LORD Jesus Christ, and through the Spirit of our God.

Food is for the belly, and the belly for food: but God will do away with both of them. Now the body is not meant for fornication, but for our LORD; and our LORD for the body.

And as God has raised our LORD, so he will raise us also by his own power.

Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit that dwells within you, which you have of God, and you are not your own?
