1 Corinthians 5:1-13

<p class="default">1 Corinthians 5&#160;

&#160;

  1. It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife.&#160;
  2. And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.&#160;
  3. For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed,&#160;
  4. In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,&#160;
  5. &#160;<b>To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.</b>&#160;
  6. Your glorying is not good. <i><b>Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?</b></i>&#160;
  7. Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:&#160;
  8. Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of &#160;<b>sincerity and truth.</b>&#160;
  9. I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:&#160;
  10. Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world.&#160;
  11. But now I have written unto you &#160;<b>not to keep company</b> , if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; &#160;<b>&#160;with such an one no not to eat.</b>&#160;

&#160;<i><b>&#160;12. For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within?</b></i>&#160;

  1. But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.&#160;
