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."
