Building on the Foundation: 1 Corinthians 3:1-23
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.
The letter was being read in Gaius's house. The room was crowded. Factions sat in clusters. The Paul party on one side. The Apollos admirers opposite. The tension was palpable.
Mere infants. Nepiois. Babies. The Corinthians considered themselves mature. Spiritually advanced. Gifted. Paul called them infants.
I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready.
