1 Corinthians 3:11

Christ Himself is the foundation of the church (Matthew 16:18; cf. Isaiah 28:16; Romans 9:33; 1 Peter 2:6). Basing a church on the work of any other person, even Peter, is improper. Paul laid the foundation for the church in Corinth when he preached Christ and Him crucified there. The apostles and prophets are the foundation of the church in a secondary sense only (Ephesians 2:20). [Note: See Barrett, pp. 87-88.]
