1 Corinthians 6:1-8


Lawsuits Among Believers

Does any one of you, when he has a 1case against another, dare to be tried before the unrighteous and anot before the 2saints?
2 Or ado you not know that bthe 1saints will judge cthe world? If the world is judged by you, are you not worthy to 2constitute the smallest law courts? 3 aDo you not know that we will judge angels? How much more matters of this life? 4 So if you have law courts dealing with matters of this life, do you appoint those who are of no account in the church as judges? 5 aI say this to your shame. Is it really this way: there is not one wise man among you who will be able to pass judgment between his bbrothers? 6 On the contrary, brother is tried with brother, and that before aunbelievers!
7 Actually, then, it is already a failure for you, that you have lawsuits with one another. aWhy not rather be wronged? Why not rather be defrauded?
8 On the contrary, you yourselves wrong and defraud. You do this even to your abrothers.
