1 Corinthians 5:4-7
English Standard Version
4 When you are assembled (A)in the name of the Lord Jesus and my spirit is present, with the power of our Lord Jesus, 5 you are (B)to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh, so (C)that his spirit may be saved (D)in the day of the Lord.[a]
6 (E)Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that (F)a little leaven leavens the whole lump? 7 Cleanse out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.
