1 Corinthians3:11
11. (Is 28:16; Ac 4:12; Ep 2:20).
For--my warning ("take heed," &c. 1Co 3:10) is as to the superstructure ("buildeth thereupon"), not as to the foundation: "For other foundation can no man lay, than that which has (already) been laid (by God) Jesus Christ," the person, not the mere abstract doctrine about Him, though the latter also is included; Jesus, God-Saviour; Christ, Messiah or Anointed.
can--A man can not lay any other, since the only one recognized by God has been already laid.
