1 Corinthians 5:4-6
Worldwide English (New Testament)
4 Do this in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. When you meet together my spirit will be with you. Then, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, give this man over to Satan. Let Satan punish his body. By this the man's spirit may yet be saved when the Lord Jesus comes.
5 Surely it is not right for you to be proud. Do you not know that only a little yeast in the bread will make all the bread rise?
6 Clean out the old yeast so that you will become like new bread. You are free from the old things. Christ, the Passover Lamb, has been killed for us.
