Paul begins by talking about those at the Corinthian church as people of the flesh instead of spiritual people. He also refers to them as infants, mentioning that they still are not ready to grow up and eat solid food. The actions by which these statements are founded by are their human ways of claiming to follow Paul or Apollos, being divided among themselves. Dealing with this problem, Paul establishes the fact that Paul and Apollos are mere humans. Regardless of whether Paul plants or Apollos waters, it is God who gives the growth. Being workers who plant or workers who water, we are all God's workers and thus unified by this fact.
Now what matters is the foundation by which a building is built on. Paul tells us that the foundation by which he builds on is Jesus Christ. Any other foundation will not last and will be shown by the day by which fire will test each person's work.
