Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers through whom you believed, as the Lord has given to each one?

So then neither he who plants is anything, nor he who waters, but God who gives the increase.

For we are coworkers with God; you are God's field, you are God's building.

And [those] whom God has appointed in the church [are]: first apostles, second prophets, third teachers, then miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, administrations, kinds of tongues.

All [are] not apostles, [are they]? All [are] not prophets, [are they]? Are all teachers? [Are] all [workers of] miracles?

Now if Timothy comes, see to it that he may be with you without fear; for he does the work of the Lord, as I also [do].

And all things are of God, who reconciled us to Himself through Jesus Christ, and who gave to us the ministry of this reconciliation,

Now then, we serve as ambassadors for Christ, as though God were appealing through us: we implore [you] on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.

And working together [with Him], we also urge that you not receive the grace of God in vain.

but in everything commending ourselves as ministers of God: in much endurance, in tribulations, in hardships, in distresses,

And He gave some as apostles, and some as prophets, and some as evangelists, and some as pastors and teachers,

for the perfecting of the saints for the work of ministry, for the building up of the body of Christ,

Now I urge you, brothers, to look out for those who cause divisions and offenses, contrary to the doctrine which you learned, and turn away from them.

For it was shown to me concerning you, my brothers, by those of Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you.

Has Christ been divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

Now if Christ is preached that He has been raised from the dead, how do some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead?

And if Christ has not been raised, then our preaching is vain and your faith also is vain!

For if the dead are not raised, [then] neither has Christ been raised.

Then also those who have died in Christ have perished.

But now Christ has been raised from the dead, [and] has become the firstfruits of those who have died.

For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all will be made alive.

Then [will be] the end, when He hands over the kingdom to God, even the Father, when He abolishes every ruler and every authority and power.

The last enemy that will be abolished is death.

Now when all things are made subject to Him, then also the Son Himself will be subjected to Him who subjected all things to Him, in order that God may be all in all.

And why are we also in danger every hour?

If, in the manner of men, I fought with beasts at Ephesus, what is the benefit to me? If the dead are not raised, "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!"

Awake to righteousness, and do not sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.

O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you, that you should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was portrayed publicly among you as crucified?

Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, will you now be made perfect in the flesh?

This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, demonic.

For where jealousy and strife [exist], there unrest and every evil deed [are].

Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world is constituted an enemy of God.
