14. If what was built on the foundation survives the fire, the builder will receive a reward.
15. But if anyone's work is burnt up, then he will lose it; but he himself will be saved, as if he had escaped through the fire.
16. Surely you know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in you!
17. So if anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you yourselves are his temple.
18. No one should fool himself. If anyone among you thinks that he is wise by this world's standards, he should become a fool, in order to be really wise.
19. For what this world considers to be wisdom is nonsense in God's sight. As the scripture says, “God traps the wise in their cleverness”;
20. and another scripture says, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are worthless.”
21. No one, then, should boast about what human beings can do. Actually everything belongs to you:
22. Paul, Apollos, and Peter; this world, life and death, the present and the future — all these are yours,
23. and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.
