1 Corinthians 3:12-23

1 Corinthians 3:12-23 CSB

If anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver,  costly stones,  wood, hay, or straw, each one’s work will become obvious. For the day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire;  the fire will test the quality of each one’s work.  If anyone’s work that he has built survives, he will receive a reward. If anyone’s work is burned up, he will experience  loss, but he himself will be saved   #— #but only as through fire.  Don’t you yourselves know that you are God’s temple  and that the Spirit of God lives in you?  If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him;  for God’s temple is holy,  and that is what you are. Let no one deceive  himself. If anyone among you thinks he is wise in this age,  let him become a fool  so that he can become wise.  For the wisdom of this world is foolishness  with God, since it is written,  He catches the wise in their craftiness ;  , and again, The Lord knows that the reasonings   of the wise are futile.   , So let no one boast in human leaders, for everything is yours   #— # whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas  or the world or life  or death  or things present or things to come   #— #everything is yours, and you belong to Christ,  and Christ belongs to God.
