John 3:20-21
20 aFor everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, blest his works should be exposed. 21But whoever cdoes what is true dcomes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”John 5:44
44How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and edo not seek the glory that comes from fthe only God?John 12:42-43
42Nevertheless, gmany even of the authorities believed in him, but hfor fear of the Pharisees they did not iconfess it, so that they would not be jput out of the synagogue; 43 kfor they loved the glory that comes from man more than the glory that comes from God.1 Corinthians 3:1-4
Divisions in the Church
1But I, brothers, ▼▼Or brothers and sisters
could not address you as mspiritual people, but as npeople of the flesh, as oinfants in Christ. 2 pI fed you with milk, not solid food, for qyou were not ready for it. And even now you are not yet ready, 3for you are still of the flesh. For while there is rjealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh and behaving only in a human way? 4For swhen one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” tare you not being merely human? Ephesians 4:14
14so that we may no longer be children, utossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in vdeceitful schemes.Hebrews 5:11
