Thematic Bible: Facts concerning


Thematic Bible






























For it has been plainly told me concerning you, my brothers, by Chloe's people, that there are dissensions among you. I mean by this that one of you says, "I am a follower of Paul"; another, "I of Apollos"; another, "I of Cephas"; another, "I of Christ."

When one says, "I follow Paul," and another, "I follow Apollos," are you not mere worldlings? What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Just ministers through whom you have believed, and each doing the work that the Lord gave him. I planted, Apollos watered, but God made the seed grow.

As for our Apollos, I have many times urged him to go to you with the others, but he was always unwilling to go to you at this time. He will come, however, whenever he has a good opportunity. Verse ConceptsApollosRight Time For People

Now a certain Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, a learned man and mighty in the Scriptures, came to Ephesus. He had been instructed in the ways of the Lord, and being full of zeal, he used to speak and to teach accurately the facts about Jesus, although he knew only the baptism of John.

He began to speak boldly in the synagogue; and when Priscilla and Aquila heard him they took him home and explained to him more accurately the way of God.

He who says he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness even until now. But he who loves his brother is abiding in the light, and in it there is no cause of stumbling.

We know that we have migrated, out of death into life, because we love our brothers. He who has no love is abiding in death. Every one who is hating his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

But whoever has this world's goods, and beholds his brother in need, and shuts up his heart against him, how can the love of God continue to abide in him? My children, let us not love in word nor in talk, but in deed and in truth.

In this is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be a propitiation for our sins. If God so loved us, beloved, we also ought to love one another.
