1 10 I appeal to you, my brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ: agree among yourselves, and avoid divisions; be firmly joined in unity of mind and thought. 1 11 I have been told, my brothers, by Chloe's people that there are quarrels among you. 1 12 What I mean is this: each of you is saying, 'I am Paul's man', or 'I am for Apollos'; 'I follow Cephas', or 'I am Christ's.' 1 13 Surely Christ has not been divided among you! Was it Paul who was crucified for you? Was it in the name of Paul that you were baptized? 1 14 Thank God, I never baptized one of you-except Crispus and Gaius. 1 15 So no one can say you were baptized in my name.— 1 16 Yes, I did baptize the household of Stephanas; I cannot think of anyone else. 1 17 Christ did not send me to baptize, but to proclaim the Gospel; and to do it without relying on the language of worldly wisdom, so that the fact of Christ on his cross might have its full weight.
