1 Corinthians 3:5, Ministers By Whom Ye Believed
The Apostle Paul knows that his name was used by those in the Corinthian church to sow discord and disunity by this deliberate attempt to form factions and create cliques. He reasons with them that ministers like himself are servants of God, entrusted with the spiritual mandate to fulfil the Great Commission. He serves his Master, Jesus Christ. They are to follow him as he follows his Master Jesus Christ.
