1 Corinthians 3:12-22

12 And whether the building which any one is erecting on that foundation be of gold or silver or costly stones, of timber or hay or straw--
13 the true character of each individual's work will become manifest. For the day of Christ will disclose it, because that day is soon to come upon us clothed in fire, and as for the quality of every one's work-- the fire is the thing which will test it.
14 If any one's work--the building which he has erected--stands the test, he will be rewarded.
15 If any one's work is burnt up, he will suffer the loss of it; yet he will himself be rescued, but only, as it were, by passing through the fire.
16 Do you not know that you are God's Sanctuary, and that the Spirit of God has His home within you?
17 If any one is marring the Sanctuary of God, him will God mar; for the Sanctuary of God is holy, which you all are.
18 Let no one deceive himself. If any man imagines that he is wise, compared with the rest of you, with the wisdom of the present age, let him become "foolish" so that he may be wise.
19 This world's wisdom is "foolishness" in God's sight; for it is written, "He snares the wise with their own cunning."
20 And again, "The Lord takes knowledge of the reasonings of the wise--how useless they are."
21 Therefore let no one boast about his human teachers.
22 For everything belongs to you--be it Paul or Apollos or Peter, the world or life or death, things present or future--everything belongs to you;
