1Corinthians:6
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Dare any of you ,
having a matter against another ,
go to law before the unjust ,
and not before the saints ?
*
Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world ?
and if the world shall be judged by you ,
are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters ?
*
Know ye not that we shall judge angels ?
how much more things that pertain to this life ?
*
If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life ,
set them to judge who are least esteemed in the church .
*
I speak to your shame .
Is it so ,
that there is not a wise man among you ?
no ,
not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren ?
*
But brother goeth to law with brother ,
and that before the unbelievers .
*
Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you ,
because ye go to law one with another .
Why do ye not rather take wrong ?
why do ye not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded ?
*
Nay ,
ye do wrong ,
and defraud ,
and that your brethren .
*
Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God ?
Be not deceived :
neither fornicators ,
nor idolaters ,
nor adulterers ,
nor effeminate ,
nor abusers of themselves with mankind ,
*
Nor thieves ,
nor covetous ,
nor drunkards ,
nor revilers ,
nor extortioners ,
shall inherit the kingdom of God .
*
And such were some of you :
but ye are washed ,
but ye are sanctified ,
but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus ,
and by the Spirit of our God .
*
All things are lawful unto me ,
but all things are not expedient :
all things are lawful for me ,
but I will not be brought under the power of any .
*
Meats for the belly ,
and the belly for meats :
but God shall destroy both it and them .
Now the body is not for fornication ,
but for the Lord ;
and the Lord for the body .
*
And God hath both raised up the Lord ,
and will also raise up us by his own power .
*
Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ ?
shall I then take the members of Christ ,
and make them the members of an harlot ?
God forbid .
*
What ?
know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body ?
for two ,
saith he ,
shall be one flesh .
*
But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit .
*
Flee fornication .
Every sin that a man doeth is without the body ;
but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body .
*
What ?
know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you ,
which ye have of God ,
and ye are not your own ?
*
For ye are bought with a price :
therefore glorify God in your body ,
and in your spirit ,
which are God '
