Now, on a broad level, we must recognize that there is a foundation. Jesus is the one who lays the basis. So, all of these people are Christians. Paul is speaking to the congregation in Corinth. These aren't Christians who are Jewish. These are Christians who are not of the Christian faith. As a result, only Jesus has the ability to lay that foundation. Then he says, "Wait a minute."
