11/02 ~ From New Testament Letters
(In the Order Believed Written)
By Necessity Paraphrased
1 - It is actually reported, that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that is not tolerated even among pagans, for a man is with his father's wife. 2 And you are arrogant? Should you not rather mourn? And why is that one among you in good standing?
3 Though I am not there with you, I am with you in spirit, and as one there with you, I have already pronounced judgment and discernment upon the one behaving such a way. 4 When you are assembled in the name of the Lord Jesus and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5 you are to deliver this man to Satan (pray and ostracize for a season) for the destruction of the self serving carnal nature, so that his spirit may be saved (for) in the day of the Lord.
6 Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the entire lump?
