Dare any of you, hauing a matter against another, goe to law before the vniust, and not before the Saints?

Do ye not know that the Saints shall iudge the world? And if the world shalbe iudged by you, are ye vnworthy to iudge the smallest matters?

Know ye not that we shall iudge Angels? How much more things that perteine to this life?

If then yee haue iudgements of things perteining to this life, set them to iudge who are least esteemed in the Church.

I speake to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man amongst you? no not one that shall bee able to iudge betweene his brethren?

But brother goeth to law with brother, & that before the vnbeleeuers?

Now therefore, there is vtterly a fault among you, because yee goe to law one with another: Why doe ye not rather take wrong? Why doe yee not rather suffer your selues to be defrauded?

Nay, you do wrong and defraud, and that your brethren.

Know yee not that the vnrighteous shall not inherite the kingdome of God? Be not deceiued: neither fornicatours, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselues with mankinde,

Nor theeues, nor couetous, nor drunkards, nor reuilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are iustified in the Name of the Lord Iesus, and by the Spirit of our God.

All things are lawfull vnto mee, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawfull for mee, but I will not bee brought vnder the power of any.

Meats for the belly, and the belly for meates: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord: and the Lord for the body.

And God hath both raised vp the Lord, and will also raise vp vs by his owne power.

Know yee not that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.

What, know ye not that he which is ioyned to an harlot, is one body? for two (saith he) shalbe one flesh.

But hee that is ioyned vnto the Lord, is one spirit.

Flee fornication: Euery sinne that a man doeth, is without the body: but he that committeth fornication, sinneth against his owne body.

What, know ye not that your body is the Temple of the holy Ghost which is in you, which yee haue of God, and ye are not your owne?

For yee are bought with a price: therefore glorifie God in your body, and in your spirit, which are Gods.
