1 Corinthians 3:21 Cross References - Twentieth_Century

²¹ Therefore let no one boast about men; for all things are yours--

¹³ For the promise that he should inherit the world did not come to Abraham or his descendants through Law, but through the righteousness due to faith.

²⁸ But we do know that God causes all things to work together for the good of those who love him-those who have received the Call in accordance with his purpose.

³² God did not withhold his own Son, but gave him up on behalf of us all; will he not, then, with him, freely give us all things?

¹² I mean this, that every one of you says either 'I follow Paul,' or 'I Apollos,' or 'I Kephas,' or 'I Christ.' ¹³ You have rent the Christ in pieces! Was it Paul who was crucified for you? or were you baptized into the Faith of Paul? ¹⁴ I am thankful that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius, ¹⁵ So that no one can say that you were baptized into my Faith. ¹⁶ I baptized also the household of Stephanas. I do not know that I baptized any one else. ¹⁷ My mission from Christ was not to baptize, but to tell the Good News; not, however, in the language of philosophy, lest the cross of the Christ should be robbed of its meaning.

⁴ When one says 'I follow Paul,' and another 'I follow Apollos,' are not you like other men? ⁵ What, I ask, is Apollos? or what is Paul? Servants through whom you were led to accept the Faith; and that only as the Lord helped each of you. ⁶ I planted, and Apollos watered, but it was God who caused the growth. ⁷ Therefore neither the man who plants, nor the man who waters, is of any account, but only God who causes the growth.

⁶ All this, Brothers, I have, for your sakes, applied to Apollos and myself, so that, from our example, you may learn to observe the precept-'Keep to what is written,' that none of you may speak boastfully of one teacher to the disparagement of another.

⁵ (For it is not ourselves that we proclaim, but Christ Jesus, as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus' sake.)

¹⁵ For all this is for your sakes, that the loving-kindness of God, spreading from heart to heart, may cause yet more hearts to overflow with thanksgiving, to his glory.

⁷ He who conquers shall enter into possession of these things, and I will be his God, and he shall be my Son.
