Judgment of Immorality
1 #
Deut 22.30. It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one should have his father's wife. 2And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you.
3For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, 4in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 5to deliver such a one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

Gal 5.9. Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump? 7#Exod 12.5. Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us: 8#Exod 13.7; Deut 16.3. therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9I wrote unto you in an#5.9 an. Some early manuscripts have the. epistle not to company with fornicators: 10yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go out of the world. 11But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such a one, no, not to eat. 12For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within? 13But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person.

Immoral Behavior and Church Discipline
1 It is reported everywhere that there is sexual immorality among you, and sexual immorality of such a kind which does not even exist among the Gentiles, so that someone has the wife of his father. 2And you are inflated with pride, and should you not rather have mourned, so that the one who has done this deed would be removed from your midst? 3For although I#*Here “although” is supplied as a component of the participle (“am absent”) which is understood as concessive am absent in body but present in spirit, I have already passed judgment on the one who has done this in this way, as if I#*Here “if” is supplied as a component of the participle (“were present”) which is understood as conditional were present. 4In the name of our Lord Jesus, when#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“are assembled”) you are assembled, and my spirit, together with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5I have decided#*The words “I have decided” are implied from the statement “I have already passed judgment” in v. 3 to hand over such a person to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, in order that his spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord.
6Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole batch of dough? 7Clean out the old leaven in order that you may be a new batch of dough, just as you are unleavened. For Christ our Passover has been sacrificed. 8So then, let us celebrate the feast, not with the old leaven or with the leaven of wickedness and sinfulness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.
9I wrote to you in the letter not to associate with sexually immoral people. 10By no means did I mean the sexually immoral people of this world or the greedy people and swindlers or idolaters, since then you would have to depart out of the world. 11But now I have written to you not to associate with any so-called brother, if he is a sexually immoral person or a greedy person or an idolater or an abusive person or a drunkard or a swindler—with such a person not even to eat. 12For what is it to me to judge those outside? Should you not judge those inside? 13But those outside God will judge. Remove the evil person from among yourselves#Literally “from you of them”.
