<p>3:5 <i>Who then is Apollos? And who is Paul? Ministers through whom you believed, and each as the Lord gave to him- </i>A Christ centred approach makes the person who preached to us a mere instrument, a servant / minister used by the Lord to bring about faith. &quot;Each as the Lord gave to him&quot; could refer to the way that Paul and Apollos were simply fulfilling the ministries given to them by the Lord; but the context is of faith and how one comes to belief. So the reference may rather be to the fact that each of them had believed as a result of the Lord's gift / grace. This was to be paramount in their thinking; the human instruments used in the process were of utterly no account.</p>
