No, it is not so. Paul was rebuking sectarianism. We should not have anyone here saying, "I am of David" (I do NOT believe this is Linda) nor others saying, "I am of Judy" (who says this?). We should all be seeking to be conformed to the image of Christ. The final arbiter of truth is Jesus Christ. Private interpretation of Scripture is NOT ALLOWED. The reason we discuss with one another is to circumvent private interpretation. Peace be with you.
