1 Corinthians 1:12-15

Divisions in the Church

12 Now I say this, that r each of you says, "I am of Paul," or "I am of s Apollos," or "I am of t Cephas," or "I am of Christ." 13 u Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? 14 I thank God that I baptized v none of you except w Crispus and x Gaius, 15 lest anyone should say that I had baptized in my own name.
