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… Because — I. CONTRARY TO THE DOCTRINE OF CHRIST. Christ here by His servant — 1. Exhorts to unity in (1) Confession; (2) Spirit; (3) Judgment. 2. Condemns all disunion. II. INCOMPATIBLE WITH OUR OBLIGATIONS TO CHRIST. Divisions — 1. Arise from sinful attachment to persons, interests, or opinions. 2. Divide the body of Christ. 3. Transfer the honour due to Him to another. (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. |
