1 Corinthians 5:12

¹¹He said to them, “To you is given the mystery of God’s Kingdom, but to those who are outside, all things are done in parables,

⁷Moreover he must have good testimony from those who are outside, to avoid falling into reproach and the snare of the devil.

¹⁴But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or an arbitrator over you?”

³For I most certainly, as being absent in body but present in spirit, have already, as though I were present, judged him who has done this thing. ⁴In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when you are gathered together with my spirit with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, ⁵you are to deliver such a one to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.

¹²that you may walk properly toward those who are outside, and may have need of nothing.

⁵Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time.

¹Dare any of you, having a matter against his neighbor, go to law before the unrighteous, and not before the saints? ²Don’t you know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? ³Don’t you know that we will judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life? ⁴If then you have to judge things pertaining to this life, do you set them to judge who are of no account in the assembly? ⁵I say this to move you to shame. Isn’t there even one wise man among you who would be able to decide between his brothers?

³⁶Jesus answered, “My Kingdom is not of this world. If my Kingdom were of this world, then my servants would fight, that I wouldn’t be delivered to the Jews. But now my Kingdom is not from here.”
