Paul, Apollos, and Cephas (Peter) were prominent figures in the early church. Paul founded the church in Corinth, Apollos was an eloquent teacher who followed him, and Cephas was one of the original apostles. This phrase emphasizes that these leaders are not to be sources of division but are all servants of Christ, working for the benefit of the church.

Eternal Perspective The present and the future are under God's control. Believers are called to live with an eternal perspective, trusting in God's sovereignty. Stewardship and Responsibility With the understanding that all things belong to us, there comes a responsibility to steward these gifts wisely for God's glory.Verse 22. - Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas. All were their servants for Jesus' sake (2 Corinthians 4:5). Instead of becoming partisans of either, they could enjoy the greatness of all. Or the world. The sudden leap from Cephas to the world shows, as Bengel says, the impetuous leap of thought. There is a passage of similar eloquence in Romans 8:38, 39.
