Week 2 Aug. 3

This weeks reading was Corinthians and Thessalonians.

So one of the things that was happening during this time was division among the people 
as to who they were going to follow "Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of 
Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified 
for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? I thank God that I baptized none of you," 
I think what is being said here is that Chirst needs to be the center of what and who we 
believe in. I thought about this with the prophest we have had or the ones we hear from 
at conference and we say to our selves I like this one or that one, what they said sounds 
better. What we need to remember is they all speak the same truth which is Christ.

A verse that I don't ever remember reading before caught my eye 1 Corinthians 3:6 "I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase." What we read, study, hear, or learn can plant the seed but we need to rely on the Lord to make the plant (us) into something.
