1CO 1:10–17, engwebp
¹⁰Now I beg you, brothers, through the name of our Lord, Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfected together in the same mind and in the same judgment.
¹¹For it has been reported to me concerning you, my brothers, by those who are from Chloe’s household, that there are contentions among you.
¹²Now I mean this, that each one of you says, “I follow Paul,” “I follow Apollos,” “I follow Cephas,” and, “I follow Christ.”
¹³Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized into the name of Paul?
¹⁴I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,
¹⁵so that no one should say that I had baptized you into my own name.
¹⁶(I also baptized the household of Stephanas; besides them, I don’t know whether I baptized any other.)
¹⁷For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the Good News—not in wisdom of words, so that the cross of Christ wouldn’t be made void.

⁵When Silas and Timothy came down from Macedonia, Paul was compelled by the Spirit, testifying to the Jews that Jesus was the Christ.
⁶When they opposed him and blasphemed, he shook out his clothing and said to them, “Your blood be on your own heads! I am clean. From now on, I will go to the Gentiles!”
⁷He departed there and went into the house of a certain man named Justus, one who worshiped God, whose house was next door to the synagogue.
⁸Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed in the Lord with all his house. Many of the Corinthians, when they heard, believed and were baptized.
⁹The Lord said to Paul in the night by a vision, “Don’t be afraid, but speak and don’t be silent;
¹⁰for I am with you, and no one will attack you to harm you, for I have many people in this city.”
¹¹He lived there a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them.
