Augustine of Hippo · Comentário Patrístico (catena)

1 Coríntios 3:1

Paul was not speaking of their bodies but of their carnal spirits. — City of God 22.21

1 Coríntios 3:7

Since the apostles would not have accomplished anything if God had not given the increase, how much more true is this of you or me, or anyone else of our time, who fancies himself as a teacher. — LETTER 193

1 Coríntios 3:11

It should not be denied that this is the distinctive basis of the orthodox faith, just because it is shared between us and certain heretics as well. For if we think carefully about the meaning of Christ we shall see that among some of the heretics who want to be called Christians, the name of Christ is held in honor, but the reality to which the name points is not. — Enchiridion 2.5

1 Coríntios 3:13

The fire will try the quality of everyone's work. If his work remains, he will receive his reward. If his work burns, he will lose his reward, but he himself will be saved. In this fire neither man will be lost forever, though the fire will profit the one and harm the other, being a test for both. — CITY OF GOD 21
