1 Corinthians 3:1-4

CEBA

NIV

1 Brothers and sisters, I couldn't talk to you like spiritual people but like unspiritual people, like babies in Christ.
1 Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit but as people who are still worldly—mere infants in Christ.
2 I gave you milk to drink instead of solid food, because you weren't up to it yet.
2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready.
3 Now you are still not up to it because you are still unspiritual. When jealousy and fighting exist between you, aren't you unspiritual and living by human standards?
3 You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans?
4 When someone says, "I belong to Paul," and someone else says, "I belong to Apollos," aren't you acting like people without the Spirit?
4 For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere human beings?
