1 Corinthians 1:10-17 - Divisions In The Church At Corinth

10 But I urge you all, brothers, for the sake of our Lord Jesus Christ, to agree in what you say, and not to allow factions among you, but to be perfectly united in mind and judgment. 11 For I have been informed, my brothers, by Chloe's people, that quarrels are going on among you. 12 What I mean is this, that one of you says, "I am a follower of Paul," another, "And I, of Apollos," another, "And I, of Cephas," and another, "And I, of Christ!" 13 Christ has been divided up! But was it Paul who was crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? 14 I am thankful that I never baptized any of you except Crispus and Gaius, 15 so that no one could say that you were baptized in my name. 16 And I did baptize the members of the household of Stephanas too; I do not know whether I baptized anyone else besides. 17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the good news??ut not with fine language, or the cross of Christ might seem an empty thing.
