I CORINTHIANS
Chapter 5
I Co | Common | 5:1 | It is actually reported that there is immorality among you, and of a kind that does not occur even among pagans: a man has his father’s wife. | |
I Co | Common | 5:2 | And you are arrogant! Ought you not rather to have mourned? Let the one who has done this be removed from your midst. | |
I Co | Common | 5:3 | For though I am absent in body, I am present in spirit, and have already passed judgment on the one who has committed this, as if I were present. | |
I Co | Common | 5:4 | In the name of our Lord Jesus, when you are assembled, and I with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, | |
I Co | Common | 5:5 | you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. | |
I Co | Common | 5:6 | Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump of dough? | |
I Co | Common | 5:7 | Cleanse out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. | |
I Co | Common | 5:8 | Let us, therefore, celebrate the festival, not with the old leaven, the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. | |
I Co | Common | 5:10 | not at all meaning the immoral people of this world, or with the greedy and swindlers, or with idolaters, for then you would have to go out of the world. | |
I Co | Common | 5:11 | But actually, I wrote to you not to associate with any one who bears the name of brother if he is an immoral person, or greedy, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler—not even to eat with such a one. | |
I Co | Common | 5:12 | For what have I to do with judging outsiders? Is it not those inside the church whom you are to judge? | |
