For I fear lest when I come I shall not find you such as I wish, and that I shall be found such as you wish not; lest there shall be strife, envy, anger, contentions, evil speakings, whisperings, pride, dissensions; lest when I come again my God shall humble me before you, and I shall mourn for many who have sinned, and not changed their minds, in respect to impurity and fornication and lewdness which they have committed.
For I have been informed of you, my brothers, by the family of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. I mean this; that each one of you says I indeed am of Paul, and I of Apollos, and I of Cephas, and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? or were you baptized in the name of Paul?
for you are yet carnal. For when there is envy and strife among you are you not carnal and walk as men? For when one says, I am of Paul, and another, I, of Apollos, are you not men?
For first, when you come together in an assembly, I hear that there are divisions among you, and some part of it I believe. For it is necessary that there should be heresies among you, that the approved may be manifest among you.
