1 Corinthians 6:1-7

1When one of you has a complaint against another, how dare you go to court to settle the matter in front of wicked people. Why don’t you settle it in front of God’s holy people?

2Don’t you know that God’s people will judge the world? So if you’re going to judge the world, aren’t you capable of judging insignificant cases?

3Don’t you know that we will judge angels, not to mention things in this life?

4When you have cases dealing with this life, why do you allow people whom the church has a low opinion of to be your judges?

5You should be ashamed of yourselves! Don’t you have at least one wise person who is able to settle disagreements between believers?

6Instead, one believer goes to court against another believer, and this happens in front of unbelievers.

7You are already totally defeated because you have lawsuits against each other. Why don’t you accept the fact that you have been wronged? Why don’t you accept that you have been cheated?
