Can Ordinary People Understand The Bible? After the church had been established, this expectation and requirement for uniform understanding of the doctrine of Christ was voiced by the apostle, Paul, as he addressed the Christians of the church at Corinth: I Corinthians "Now I beseech 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."

There is one body, and one Spirit, even as you are called in ... Colossians 4:16 "I charge you by the Lord that this epistle be read unto all the holy brethren."
