Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians, Chapter 6
{6:1} Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbor, go to
law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints? {6:2} 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? {6:3} Don't
you know that we will judge angels? How much more, things that pertain
to this life? {6:4} 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? {6:5} 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?
{6:6} But brother goes to law with brother, and that before
unbelievers! {6:7} 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? {6:8} No, but you yourselves do wrong,
and defraud, and that against your brothers. {6:9} Or don't you know
that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don't be
deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers,
nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, {6:10} nor thieves, nor
covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortioners, will
inherit the Kingdom of God. {6:11} Such were some of you, but you were
washed. But you were sanctified. But you were justified in the name of
the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God. {6:12} "All things are
lawful for me," but not all things are expedient. "All things are
lawful for me," but I will not be brought under the power of anything.
{6:13} "Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods," but God will
bring to nothing both it and them. But the body is not for sexual
immorality, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body. {6:14} Now
God raised up the Lord, and will also raise us up by his power. {6:15}
Don't you know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then
take the members of Christ, and make them members of a prostitute? May
it never be! {6:16} Or don't you know that he who is joined to a
prostitute is one body? For, "The two," says he, "will become one
flesh."[1] {6:17} But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit.
{6:18} Flee sexual immorality! "Every sin that a man does is outside
the body," but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own
body. {6:19} Or don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy
Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own,
{6:20} for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your
body and in your spirit, which are God's.
