“I Thank God I Did Not Baptize You” (1 Cor. 1:14-17)

That it is not necessary to travel to get to Bedford… “I am glad none of you were transported by me!” What is the meaning of your statement? That it is not necessary to travel to get to Bedford… …or that you are thankful you were not the one transporting any other, lest some harm may have come to them?”

That it is not necessary to travel to get to Bedford… “I am glad none of you were transported by me!” What is the meaning of your statement? That it is not necessary to travel to get to Bedford… …or that you are thankful you were not the one transporting any other, lest some harm may have come to them?”

(1 Corinthians 1:14-17) I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, lest anyone should say that I had baptized in my own name. Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas. Besides, I do not know whether I baptized any other. For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect. (NKJV)

Paul Preached Christ (Not Paul) (Acts 8:1) Now Saul was consenting to his death. At that time a great persecution arose against the church which was at Jerusalem; and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles. (NKJV) (Acts 8:5) Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria and preached Christ to them. (NKJV)

(1 Corinthians 1:10-13) Now I plead with you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. For it has been declared to me concerning you, my brethren, by those of Chloe's household, that there are contentions among you. Now I say this, that each of you says, "I am of Paul," or "I am of Apollos," or "I am of Cephas," or "I am of Christ." Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Or were you baptized in the name of Paul? (NKJV)

(1 Corinthians 1:14-15) I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, lest anyone should say that I had baptized in my own name. (NKJV)

(1 Corinthians 3:21-23) Therefore let no one boast in men. For all things are yours: whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas, or the world or life or death, or things present or things to come--all are yours. And you are Christ's, and Christ is God's. (NKJV)

For the Remission of Sins (Acts 2:38) Then Peter said to them, "Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. (NKJV)

Added to the Church (Acts 2:47) praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved. (NKJV)

“If you believe…you may” (Acts 8:37) Then Philip said, "If you believe with all your heart, you may." And he answered and said, "I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God." (NKJV)

Full Submersion (Acts 8:38-39) So he commanded the chariot to stand still. And both Philip and the eunuch went down into the water, and he baptized him. Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more; and he went on his way rejoicing. (NKJV)

Nothing But the Biblical Pattern (Titus 2:7-8) in all things showing yourself to be a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity, reverence, incorruptibility, sound speech that cannot be condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say of you. (NKJV) (2 Timothy 1:13) Hold fast the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which are in Christ Jesus. (NKJV)

“I thank God I did not baptize you”?!? (1 Corinthians 1:14) I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius, (NKJV)

“Many” Corinthians Baptized at the Preaching of Paul (Acts 18:8) Then Crispus, the ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his household. And many of the Corinthians, hearing, believed and were baptized. (NKJV)

What Paul Was Called To Do (1 Corinthians 1:17) For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect. (NKJV)
