1 Corinthians Chapter 6

1Dare any of you, having business against another, be judged under the unjust, and not under the Saints?

2Do ye not know that the Saints shall judge the world? If the world then shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?

3Know ye not that we shall judge the Angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?

4If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them up which are least esteemed in the Church.

5I speak it to your shame. Is it so that there is not a wise man among you? no, not one, that can judge between his brethren?

6But a brother goeth to law with a brother, and that under the infidels.

7Now therefore there is altogether infirmity in you, that ye go to law one with another: why rather suffer ye not wrong? why rather sustain ye not harm?

8Nay, ye yourselves do wrong, and do harm, and that to your brethren.

9Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor wantons, nor buggerers,

10Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners shall inherit the kingdom of God.

11And 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.

12All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not profitable. I may do all things, but I will not be brought under the power of any thing.

13Meats are ordained for the belly, and the belly for the 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.

14And God hath also raised up the Lord, and shall raise us up by his power.

15Know 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.

16Do ye not know, that he which coupleth himself with an harlot, is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.

17But he that is joined unto the Lord, is one spirit.

18Flee fornication: every sin that a man doeth, is without the body: but he that commiteth fornication, sinneth against his own body.

19Know ye not, that your body is the temple of the holy Ghost, which is in you, whom ye have of God? and ye are not your own.

20For ye are bought for a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit: for they are God’s.
