1 Corinthians 1:10-12

Divisions in the Church

10 I appeal to you, brothers,[a] by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no 1divisions among you, but that you be united 2in the same mind and the same judgment.
11 For it has been reported to me by Chloe's people that there is 3quarreling among you, my brothers.
12 What I mean is that 4each one of you says, "I follow Paul," or "I follow 5Apollos," or "I follow 6Cephas," or "I follow Christ."
