Immoral behavior and what Christians should do about it
5
📚✭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. 2 📚And you are puffed up✭. You did not mourn greatly, so that the one who did this deed might be put away from among you. 3 📚✭For indeed I, though absent in body but present in spirit, have already reached a decision (as though I were present) about the one who has done this deed. 4 📚✭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, 5 📚I have decided to hand this one over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh✭, so that the spirit may be saved✭ in the day of the Lord Jesus. 6 📚✭Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little yeast permeates the whole lump? 7 📚Therefore, purge out the old yeast✭, that you may be a new lump, since you really are without yeast. For truly Christ our Passover has been sacrificed for us. 8 📚✭Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old yeast, nor with the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with the yeastless bread of sincerity and truth.
9 📚✭I wrote to you in a letter not to associate with sexually immoral people, 10 📚but not at all meaning with the sexually immoral people of this world, or with the greedy, or extortioners, or with idolaters. For in that case you would have to leave the world. 11 📚But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who is called a brother if he is sexually immoral or greedy or an idolater or a reviler or a drunkard or an extortioner, and not to eat with such a person.
