Context Readings

Divisiveness And Immaturity

5 Who is Apollos? Who is Paul? They are simply used by God to give you faith, each as the Lord assigns his task. 6 I did the planting, Apollos did the watering, but it was God who made the seed grow. 7 So neither planter nor waterer counts, but God alone who makes the seed grow.
