1 Corinthians 6

  1. 1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to be judged before the unjust: and not before the saints?

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 4

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 4
  3. 3 Know you not that we shall judge angels? How much more things of this world?

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 3
  4. 4 If therefore you have judgments of things pertaining to this world, set them to judge who are the most despised in the church.

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 1
  5. 5 I speak to your shame. Is it so that there is not among you any one wise man that is able to judge between his brethren?

  6. 6 But brother goeth to law with brother: and that before unbelievers.

  7. 7 Already indeed there is plainly a fault among you, that you have law suits one with another. Why do you not rather take wrong? Why do you not rather suffer yourselves to be defrauded?

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 3
  8. 8 But you do wrong and defraud: and that to your brethren.

  9. 9 Know you not that the unjust shall not possess the kingdom of God? Do not err: Neither fornicators nor idolaters nor adulterers:

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 2
  11. 11 And such some of you were. But you are washed: but you are sanctified: but you are justified: in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ and the Spirit of our God.

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 4
  12. 12 All things are lawful to me: but all things are not expedient. All things are lawful to me: but I will not be brought under the power of any.

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 2
  13. 13 Meat for the belly and the belly for the meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. But the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord: and the Lord for the body.

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 5
  14. 14 Now God hath raised up the Lord and will raise us up also by his power.

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 6
  15. 15 Know you 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!

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 4
  16. 16 Or know you not that he who is joined to a harlot is made one body? For they shall be, saith he, two in one flesh.

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 1
  17. 17 But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit.

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 2
  18. 18 Fly fornication. Every sin that a man doth is without the body: but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 4
  19. 19 Or know you not that your members are the temple of the Holy Ghost, who is in you, whom you have from God: and you are not your own?

    Ante-Nicene Fathers · 6
