Gottes Neue Offenbarungen

The First Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Corinthians

Literal Standard Version :: World English Bible Catholic

- Kapitel 3 -

(Hebrews 5:11–14)
1
And I, brothers, was not able to speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly—as to babies in Christ;
2
with milk I fed you, and not with meat, for you were not yet able, but not even yet are you now able,
3
for yet you are fleshly, for where [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are you not fleshly, and walk in the manner of men?
4
For when one may say, “I, indeed, am of Paul,” and another, “Iof Apollos,” are you not fleshly?
5
Who, then, is Paul, and who Apollos, but servants through whom you believed, and to each as the LORD gave?
6
I planted, Apollos watered, but God was giving growth;
7
so that neither is he who is planting anything, nor he who is watering, but He who is giving growth—God;
8
and he who is planting and he who is watering are one, and each will receive his own reward according to his own labor,
9
for we are fellow-workmen of God; you are God’s tillage, God’s building.

Christ Our Foundation

(Isaiah 28:14–22; Ephesians 2:19–22; 1 Peter 2:1–8)
10
According to the grace of God that was given to me, as a wise master-builder, I have laid a foundation, and another builds on [it],
11
for no one is able to lay another foundation except that which is laid, which is Jesus the Christ;
12
and if anyone builds on this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw
13
the work will become visible of each, for the day will declare [it], because it is revealed in fire, and the work of each, what kind it is, the fire will prove;
14
if the work of anyone remains that he built on [it], he will receive a wage;
15
if the work of any is burned up, he will suffer loss, but himself will be saved, but so as through fire.

God’s Temple and God’s Wisdom

(Romans 12:1–8; 1 Corinthians 6:18–20)
16
Have you not known that you are a temple of God, and the Spirit of God dwells in you?
17
If anyone ruins the temple of God, God will ruin him; for the temple of God is holy, which you are.
18
Let no one deceive himself; if anyone seems to be wise among you in this age—let him become a fool, that he may become wise,
19
for the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, for it has been written: “Who is taking the wise in their craftiness”;
20
and again, “The LORD knows the reasonings of the wise, that they are vain.”
21
So then, let no one glory in men, for all things are yours,
22
whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things about to beall are yours,
23
and you [are] Christ’s, and Christ [is] God’s.
(Hebrews 5:11–14)
1
Brothers, I couldn’t speak to you as to spiritual, but as to fleshly, as to babies in Christ.
2
I fed you with milk, not with solid food, for you weren’t yet ready. Indeed, you aren’t ready even now,
3
for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, aren’t you fleshly, and don’t you walk in the ways of men?
4
For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” aren’t you fleshly?
5
Who then is Apollos, and who is Paul, but servants through whom you believed, and each as the Lord gave to him?
6
I planted. Apollos watered. But God gave the increase.
7
So then neither 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 the same, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
9
For we are God’s fellow workers. You are God’s farming, God’s building.

Christ Our Foundation

(Isaiah 28:14–22; Ephesians 2:19–22; 1 Peter 2:1–8)
10
According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another builds on it. But let each man be careful how he builds on it.
11
For no one can lay any other foundation than that which has been laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12
But if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay, or straw,
13
each man’s work will be revealed. For the Day will declare it, because it is revealed in fire; and the fire itself will test what sort of work each man’s work is.
14
If any man’s work remains which he built on it, he will receive a reward.
15
If any man’s work is burned, he will suffer loss, but he himself will be saved, but as through fire.

God’s Temple and God’s Wisdom

(Romans 12:1–8; 1 Corinthians 6:18–20)
16
Don’t you know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit lives in you?
17
If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, which you are.
18
Let no one deceive himself. If anyone thinks that he is wise among you in this world, let him become a fool that he may become wise.
19
For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He has taken the wise in their craftiness.”(a)
20
And again, “The Lord knows the reasoning of the wise, that it is worthless.”(b)
21
Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours,
22
whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come. All are yours,
23
and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.
