Divisions in the Church

1 Corinthians 1

¹⁰ I appeal to you, brothers, ₁ by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no _p divisions among you, but that you be united _q in the same mind and the same judgment. ¹¹ For it has been reported to me by Chloe's people that there is _r quarreling among you, my brothers. ¹² What I mean is that _s each one of you says, "I follow Paul," or "I follow _t Apollos," or "I follow _u Cephas," or "I follow Christ." ¹³ _v Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you _w baptized in the name of Paul? ¹⁴ I thank God that I baptized none of you except _x Crispus and _y Gaius, ¹⁵ so that no one may say that you were baptized in my name. ¹⁶ (I did baptize also _z the household of Stephanas. Beyond that, I do not know whether I baptized anyone else.) ¹⁷ For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and _a not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
