1 Corinthians 1:4
Compare all
2 To the church of God which is at Corinth, to those who aare sanctified in Christ Jesus, bcalled to be saints, with all who in every place call on the name of Jesus Christ cour Lord, dboth theirs and ours:  
3 aGrace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.  

Spiritual Gifts at Corinth

4 aI thank my God always concerning you for the grace of God which was given to you by Christ Jesus,  
5 that you were enriched in everything by Him ain all utterance and all knowledge,  
6 even as athe testimony of Christ was confirmed1 in you,  
7 so that you come short in no gift, eagerly awaiting for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ,  
8 awho will also confirm you to the end, bthat you may be blameless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.  
9 aGod is faithful, by whom you were called into bthe fellowship of His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.  

Sectarianism Is Sin

10 Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, athat you all speak the same thing, and that there be no2 divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.  
11 For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe’s household, that there are contentions among you.  
12 Now I say this, that aeach of you says, “I am of Paul,” or “I am of bApollos,” or “I am of cCephas,” or “I am of Christ.”  
13 aIs Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul?  
14 I thank God that I baptized anone of you except bCrispus and cGaius,  
15 lest anyone should say that I had baptized in my own name.
16 Yes, I also baptized the household of aStephanas. Besides, I do not know whether I baptized any other.  
17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, anot with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect.  

Christ the Power and Wisdom of God

18 For the1 message of the cross is afoolishness to bthose who are perishing, but to us cwho are being saved it is the dpower of God.  
19 For it is written:
a“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,
And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”  
20 aWhere is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the1 disputer of this age? bHas not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
