Sexual Immorality Defiles the Church

1 It is actually reported that there is ^asexual immorality among you, and of a kind that is not tolerated even among pagans, ^bfor a man has his father’s wife. 2 And ^cyou are arrogant! Ought you ^dnot rather to mourn? Let him who has done this be removed from among you.

3 For though ^eabsent in body, I am present in spirit; and as if present, I have already pronounced judgment on the one who did such a thing. 4 When you are assembled ^fin the name of the Lord Jesus and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5 you are ^gto deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so ^hthat his spirit may be saved ⁱin the day of the Lord. ^{▼▼Some manuscripts add Jesus}

6 ^kYour boasting is not good. Do you not know that ^la little leaven leavens the whole lump?

1 Corinthians 5:11-13

11 But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone ^mwho bears the name of brother if he is guilty of sexual immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or swindler—not even to eat with such a one. 12 For what have I to do with judging ⁿoutsiders? ^oIs it not those inside the church ^{▼▼Greek those inside} whom you are to judge? 13 God judges ^{▼▼Or will judge} those outside. ^r“Purge the evil person from among you.”
