Though I am happy for my heritage, many boast in their spiritual pedigree. Paul did not thing that was important and could be deceptive.

And that is a very good point that you made and one that is very accurate. Paul was emphasising his displeasure with the people who were boasting in almost an atmosphere that they were more concerned with who they were attached to by baptism than who they should have been following by faith( Jesus) Paul's quote is definitely appreciated by pastors.
