Sectarianism Is Carnal
1 And I, brethren, could not speak to you as to spiritual people but as to carnal, as to ababes in Christ.
2 I fed you with amilk and not with solid food; bfor until now you were not able to receive it, and even now you are still not able;
3 for you are still carnal. For where there are envy, strife, and divisions among you, are you not carnal and1 behaving like mere men?
4 For when one says, “I am of Paul,” and another, “I am of Apollos,” are you not carnal?
Watering, Working, Warning
5 Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but aministers through whom you believed, as the Lord gave to each one?
6 aI planted, bApollos watered, cbut God gave the increase.
