1 Corinthians 3:4-8 For while one said, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are you not carnal?… its cause: — A lady who was present at the Lord's Supper, where the Rev. Ebenezer Erskine was assisting, was much impressed with his discourse. She went again the next Sabbath to hear him. But she felt none of those strong impressions she experienced on the former occasion. Wondering at this, she called on Mr. Erskine and asked him if he could account for it. He replied, "Madam, the reason is this — last Sabbath you went to hear Jesus Christ; but to-day you have come to hear Ebenezer Erskine." (W. Baxendale.)
