1 Corinthians 3:2

---

← 1 Corinthians 3:1	1 Corinthians 3:2 (KJV)	1 Corinthians 3:3 →
And I, brethren, could not speak unto you as unto spiritual, but as unto carnal, [even] as unto babes in Christ.	I have fed you with milk, and not with meat: for hitherto ye were not able [to bear it], neither yet now are ye able.	For ye are yet carnal: for whereas [there is] among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
