INTRODUCTION
SCRIPTURE
(NIV)
10 I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought.
11 My brothers and sisters, some from Chloe’s household have informed me that there are quarrels among you.
12 What I mean is this: One of you says, “I follow Paul”; another, “I follow Apollos”; another, “I follow Cephas”; still another, “I follow Christ.”
13 Is Christ divided?
Was Paul crucified for you?
Were you baptized in the name of Paul?
14 I thank God that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius,
15 so no one can say that you were baptized in my name.
16 (Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I don’t remember if I baptized anyone else.)
17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel—not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
A CALL FOR UNITY
Of the sins listed in Proverbs, sowing discord is one God hates most
The very title brethren is an argument for unity
The word for division is schisma.
means to tear, fracture
division is done through fighting, by gossiping, criticism, hatred or bitterness.
The words “ perfectly joined” (katartizo) means to be united or made complete
THREE MAJOR PROBLEMS
CONTROVERSIES
CLIQUES
CONCEIT
Division were caused by the members not the leaders
It
It’s detestable to God for brethren to dwell together in discord.
The arguments among the Corinthians over which group was superior was caused by pride.
Pride is the only disease known to man that makes everyone sick except the one who has it.
Christians should not allow any room for pride
FINAL THOUGHT
TURNING YOUR EYES UPON JESUS
WHERE IS YOUR FOCUS TODAY?
2. Have I fixed my eyes on myself?
3. Have I fixed my eyes on others?
