If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy him; for God’s temple is holy, and that is what you are.

In this regard, it is required that managers be found faithful.

So don’t judge anything prematurely, before the Lord comes, who will both bring to light what is hidden in darkness and reveal the intentions of the hearts. And then praise will come to each one from God.

It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and the kind of sexual immorality that is not even tolerated[fn] among the Gentiles ​— ​a man is sleeping with his father’s wife.

But actually, I wrote[fn] you not to associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister and is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or verbally abusive, a drunkard or a swindler. Do not even eat with such a person.

If any of you has a dispute against another, how dare you take it to court before the unrighteous,[fn] and not before the saints?

For if someone sees you, the one who has knowledge, dining in an idol’s temple, won’t his weak conscience be encouraged[fn] to eat food offered to idols?

If others have this right to receive benefits from you, don’t we even more? Nevertheless, we have not made use of this right; instead, we endure everything so that we will not hinder the gospel of Christ.

For my part I have used none of these rights, nor have I written these things that they may be applied in my case. For it would be better for me to die than for anyone to deprive me of my boast!

To the weak I became weak, in order to win the weak. I have become all things to all people, so that I may by every possible means save some.

If anyone speaks in a tongue, there are to be only two, or at the most three, each in turn, and let someone interpret.

If they want to learn something, let them ask their own husbands at home, since it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church.

If anyone thinks he is a prophet or spiritual, he should recognize that what I write to you is the Lord’s command.

and by which you are being saved, if you hold to the message I preached to you ​— ​unless you believed in vain.
