1. It is actually being said that there is sexual sin among you. And it is a kind that does not happen even among people who do not know God. A man there has his father’s wife.
2. And you are proud! You should have been filled with sadness so that the man who did this should be put out of your group.
3. I am not there with you in person, but I am with you in spirit. And I have already judged the man who did that sin as if I were really there.
12-13. It is not my business to judge those who are not part of the church. God will judge them. But you must judge the people who are part of the church. The Scripture says, “You must get rid of the evil person among you.”
