First Reading
1 Corinthians 3:1-9
Read this as the first big movement of the day. Notice what God is doing, who is speaking, and what part of the story or teaching should stay with you.
1And I, brothers and sisters, could not speak to you as to spiritual, but as to carnal. As to little ones in Christ.
2I gave you milk to drink, not food; for you were not able as yet. But neither indeed are you now able; for you are yet carnal.
3For, whereas there is among you envying and contention, are you not carnal, and walk according to man$1
4For while one says, I indeed am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollo; are you not men$1 What then is Apollo, and what is Paul?
5The ministers of him whom you have believed; and to every one as the Lord has given.
6I have planted, Apollo watered, but God gave the increase.
7Therefore, neither he that planteth is any thing, nor he that watereth; but God that gives the increase.
8Now he that planteth, and he that watereth, ate one. And every man shall receive his own reward, according to his own work.
9For we are God's coadjutors: you are God's husbandry; you are God's building.
