1. And I, brothers and sisters, could not speak to you as Spirit-filled but as worldly—as infants in Messiah.
2. I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready. Indeed, even now you are not yet ready,
3. for you are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, aren’t you worldly and walking in a human way?
4. For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere humans?
5. What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? Servants through whom you came to trust—and to each as the Lord gave.
6. I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase.
7. So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who makes things grow.
8. Now he who plants and he who waters work as one, but each will receive his own reward according to his own labor.
