How to Judge Christians - 1 Cor 5:1-6:11

A man has taken his father's wife, and the church at Corinth did not respond to this open sin by someone having the name of brother in Christ. However, the apostle Paul pronounced judgment in his absence and corrected the church for allowing this to continue. First Corinthians 5 and 6 challenge Christians to stand against continued sin and to judge one another within the church rather than before unbelieving judges.
