I have planted, Apollos watered (I Cor. 3:6)

During his first visit to Corinth, where he remained for "a year and six months" (Acts 18:11), Paul actively taught and preached to the Corinthians, and so could justly claim to have founded or "planted" this church. Apollos played his part in evangelizing the Corinthians by watering this good seed; for we learn that in Corinth "he mightily convinced the Jews, and that publickly, shewing by the scriptures that Jesus was Christ" (Acts 18:28)

It is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness (I Cor. 3:19)
