Immoral Church Members
1 It is widely reported that there is sexual immoralityamong you, and the kind of sexual immorality that is not even toleratedamong the Gentiles— a man is living with his father’s wife.
2 And you are inflated with pride, instead of filled with griefso that he who has committed this act might be removed from your congregation.
3 For though I am absent in body but present in spirit,I have already decided about the one who has done this thing as though I were present.
4 When you are assembled in the name of our Lord Jesus with my spirit and with the power of our Lord Jesus,
5 turn that one over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh,so that his spirit may be saved in the Day of the Lord.
6 Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeastpermeates the whole batch of dough?
7 Clean out the old yeast so that you may be a new batch. You are indeed unleavened, for Christ our Passoverhas been sacrificed.
8 Therefore, let us observe the feast, not with old yeast or with the yeast of malice and evilbut with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
Church Discipline
9 I wrote to you in a letter not to associatewith sexually immoral people.
10 I did not mean the immoral people of this world or the greedyand swindlersor idolaters; otherwise you would have to leave the world.
11 But now I am writingyou not to associate with anyone who claims to be a believerwho is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or verbally abusive, a drunkardor a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person.
12 For what business is it of mine to judgeoutsiders? Don’t you judge those who are inside?
13 But God judges outsiders. Put away the evil person from among yourselves.
