1 Corinthians 5:1-13 — Dealing with Sexual Immorality

1Cor.5.1-13

¹It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of such a kind that is not even found among the Gentiles : that someone has his father's wife. ²And you are arrogant! Should you not rather have mourned, so that the one who did this deed might be removed from among you? ³For though I am absent in body but present in spirit, I have already judged the one who did this, just as if I were present. ⁴When you are assembled in the name of the Lord Jesus , along with my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus, ⁵you 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 . ⁶Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? ⁷Clean out the old leaven, so that you may be a new lump, just as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed . ⁸Therefore let us keep the festival, not with the old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. ⁹I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— ¹⁰not at all meaning the sexually immoral of this world, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world. ¹¹But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother if he is sexually immoral or greedy, or an idolater or a slanderer, or a drunkard or a swindler—not even to eat with such a one. ¹²For what business is it of mine to judge those outside? Do you not judge those inside? ¹³But God will judge those outside. “Expel the evil person from among you.”
