1 Corinthians 3:5-9

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

1 Corinthians 3:5-9. Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man? I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase. So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase. Now he that planteth and he that waterereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour. For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry.

Ye are God’s tilled ground. Then the apostle works out the same thought under another image turning from agriculture to architecture.
