13. Has Messiah been divided? Paul wasn’t crucified for you, was he? Or were you immersed into the name of Paul?
14. I thank God that I immersed none of you, except Crispus and Gaius,
15. so that no one should say that I had immersed you into my own name.
16. (I also immersed the household of Stephanas; besides them, I don’t recall if I immersed anyone else.)
17. For Messiah sent me not to immerse, but to proclaim the Good News—not with cleverness of speech, so that the cross of Messiah would not be made of no effect.
