* It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you , and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles--that a man has his father 's wife ! * And you are puffed up , and have not rather mourned , that he who has done this deed might be taken away from among you . * For I indeed , as absent in body but present in spirit , have already judged (as though I were present ) him who has so done this deed . * In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ , when you are gathered together , along with my spirit , with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ , * deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh , that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus . * Your glorying is not good . Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump ? * Therefore purge out the old leaven , that you may be a new lump , since you truly are unleavened . For indeed Christ , our Passover , was sacrificed for us . * Therefore let us keep the feast , not with old leaven , nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness , but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth . * I wrote to you in my epistle not to keep company with sexually immoral people . * Yet I certainly did not mean with the sexually immoral people of this world , or with the covetous , or extortioners , or idolaters , since then you would need to go out of the world . * But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone named a brother , who is sexually immoral , or covetous , or an idolater , or a reviler , or a drunkard , or an extortioner--not even to eat with such a person . * For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside ? Do you not judge those who are inside ? * But those who are outside God judges . Therefore "put away from yourselves the evil person ."
