The Unleavened Truth

After rebuking the individual in the Church in Corinth for his sexual immorality, Paul then shifts his attention to the Church as a whole. Specially for their tolerance of such sinful behavior. For the sake of purity and unity in the church, Christian assemblies are encouraged to clean out the old leaven of sinfulness. This begins individually, each one of us should clear out the leaven of our natural, sinful self. This command also expands to the church. 

Sadly, too many churches today are like the Corinthians before Paul’s letter, tolerating and accepting sinful behavior. This is how the world thinks and that thinking has no place within the body of Christ, which has already been called out from the world. This requires a level of spiritual discernment that the world will call bigoted judgmentalism. Yet, the Biblical mandate is clear, “Remove the wicked man from among yourselves.”
I Corinthians 5:6-13

    About the Series

    Paul’s First Epistle to the church in Corinth is a letter full of love and sorrow. Love for God’s Word and His Church is present on every page and sorrow for a church that has given over to the divisive wantonness of a real-world “Vanity Fair.”
