No, he wasn't! He was talking about us. This was written in the Scriptures so that all who plow and all who grind the grain will look forward to sharing in the harvest.
Your share may be eaten anywhere by anyone in your family, because it is your pay for working at the sacred tent.
If God doesn't make the time shorter, no one will be left alive. But because of God's chosen ones, he will make the time shorter.
And the Scriptures were written to teach and encourage us by giving us hope.
Apollos and I work together for God, and you are God's garden and God's building.
All of this has been done for you, so that more and more people will know how kind God is and will praise and honor him.
And farmers who work hard are the first to eat what grows in their field.
