GRACE 1 Corinthians 15:10

But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 

But by the grace of God I am what I am 
Romans 3:24  ... and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.

and his grace to me was not without effect 
Romans 12:3  For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you.

No, I worked harder than all of them 
2 Corinthians 11:23  Are they servants of Christ? (I am out of my mind to talk like this.) I am more. I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again.
Colossians 1:29  To this end I strenuously contend with all the energy Christ so powerfully works in me.

yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me 
Philippians 2:12-13  Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed--not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence--continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.
