First Letter to the Corinthians

are to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump?

Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.

Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, neither with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

I wrote to you in my letter to have no company with sexual sinners;

yet not at all meaning with the sexual sinners of this world, or with the covetous and extortioners, or with idolaters; for then you would have to leave the world.

But as it is, I wrote to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother who is a sexual sinner, or covetous, or an idolater, or a slanderer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner. Don't even eat with such a person.

For what have I to do with also judging those who are outside? Don't you judge those who are within?

But those who are outside, God judges. "Put away the wicked man from among yourselves."

Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbor, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints?

Don't you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

Don't you know that we will judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?

If then, you have to judge things pertaining to this life, do you set them to judge who are of no account in the assembly?

I say this to move you to shame. Isn't there even one wise man among you who would be able to decide between his brothers?

But brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers!

Therefore it is already altogether a defect in you, that you have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?
