The
First Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Church at Corinth Chapter
3:1-3
1
And I could not speak unto you, brethren, as unto spiritual men, but
as unto carnal, even as unto babes in Christ.
2
I gave you milk to drink, and not meat: for ye were not yet able to
bear it, neither yet now are ye able.
3
For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and
strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?

A
warning on sectarianism.
Brethren:
In
these verses above, Paul begins his discourse on avoiding
sectarianism, which causes dissension and division within the church.
For such begins to cause strife, envy, jealousies, and all manner of
divers troubles. It likewise, means that as Christians, we are not of
one mind in the body of Christ, but of many, that do not, or cannot
function together. My friends, this should not be so. For such, is
walking in carnality. We are still walking in the ways of the world
by acting and behaving in such a way.
