for you are still carnal. For since there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not carnal, and are you not walking like mere men? For when one says, "I am of Paul," and another, "I am of Apollos," are you not mere men? What then is Apollos? And what is Paul? Servants through whom you believed, even as the Lord assigned to each one. read more.
I planted, Apollos watered, but God was causing the growth. So neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth. Now he who plants and he who waters are one, and each will receive his own reward according to his own labor. For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, God's building.

But in the following instructions, I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse. For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it. For there must be factions among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized. read more.
Therefore when you meet together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat, for in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal, and one is hungry and another is drunk.


But Herod the tetrarch, being rebuked by him concerning Herodias, his brother's wife, and for all the other evil things Herod had done,

It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and of a kind that does not occur even among pagans: a man has his father's wife. And you are arrogant! Ought you not rather to have mourned? Let the one who has done this be removed from your midst. For though I am absent in body, I am present in spirit, and have already passed judgment on the one who has committed this, as if I were present. read more.
In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are assembled, and I with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.


When any one of you has a grievance against a brother, does he dare go to law before the unrighteous instead of before the saints? Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you not competent to try trivial cases? Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more matters of this life! read more.
So if you have disputes about such matters, do you appoint them as judges who are of no account in the church? I say this to your shame. Can it be that there is no man among you wise enough to decide between his brethren, but brother goes to law against brother, and that before unbelievers? Actually, then, it is already a defeat for you, that you have lawsuits with one another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded? Instead, you yourselves defraud and do wrong, and you even do this to your brethren.

I appeal to you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and in the same judgment. For I have been informed by Chloe's people, that there are quarrels among you, my brethren. What I mean is this, that each one of you says, "I am of Paul," and "I of Apollos," and "I of Cephas," and "I of Christ." read more.
Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?

But in the following instructions, I do not praise you, because you come together not for the better but for the worse. For, in the first place, when you come together as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it. For there must be factions among you in order that those who are genuine among you may be recognized. read more.
Therefore when you meet together, it is not the Lord's supper that you eat, for in eating, each one goes ahead with his own meal, and one is hungry and another is drunk. What! Do you not have houses to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you in this? No, I will not.
