1 Corinthians 3:21

21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;

Ver. 21. Let no man glory in men ] That is, that they are such a one’s scholars or followers, seeing the Church is not made for them, but they for the Church.

For all things are yours, &c. ] Haec est magnae nostrae Chartulae Epitome, saith Sam. Ward. This is an epitome of the Church’s grand grant or charter. A Christian hath interest in, and right to, all these things, 1. Entirely, Ephesians 1:23 ; Ephesians 2:10 ; Colossians 3:11 . Colossians 3:2 . Refinedly, the curse is removed, Galatians 3:13 ; Proverbs 10:22 . Proverbs 10:3 . Really, 1 Corinthians 7:31 ; Ephesians 1:23 . Ephesians 1:4 . Safely, Proverbs 1:33 ; Proverbs 5:1-23 . Serviceably, Romans 8:28 . Romans 8:6 . Satisfyingly, Psalms 22:26 . So that the poor Christian, saith one, is like the usurer, who goes meanly and fares hard, but hath thousands out at use.
