10/28 ~ From New Testament Letters
(In the Order Believed Written)
Paraphrased by Necessity
7 - So neither the person who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters are one, and each will receive wages according to their labor. 9 For we are God's fellow workers, and you are God's field, and building.
10 According to the grace of God given to me (Paul) like a skilled master builder I laid a foundation (there in Corinth) and someone else is building upon it. Let each one take care how they build upon it, 11 for no one can use a foundation other than that which is laid, which is Jesus, the Christ. 12 Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw— 13 each one's work will become seen for what it is, for The Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed by fire, and the fire will test what sort of work each one has done. (The fire concurrent to when he “returns on a cloud” - at Mt.13:30 as Rev.16:13-16!) 14 If the work that anyone has built on the foundation survives, they will receive a reward. 15 If anyone's work is burned up, they will suffer loss, though they themself will be saved, but as if through fire.
