1 Corinthians 1:10-16 Now I beseech you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing… I. HOW FAR ARE THEY RIGHT? As far as they — 1. Stand upon the common foundations of Christ. 2. Busy themselves to save souls and not to make proselytes. 3. Esteem, love, and help each other. 4. Exhibit a holy emulation in exalting Christ. II. WHEN ARE THEY WRONG? 1. When they exalt party names and differences above Christ. 2. When they are slavishly attached to their party, and make it the great object of their zeal. 3. When they note and despise others and exclude them from their fellowship. 4. When they seek to glorify their party above all others. (J. Lyth, D. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. |
