   Bible Reading for November 30   
      
   1 Corinthians Chapter 5   
      
   1 It is reported commonly that there is fornication among you, and such   
   fornication as is not so much as named among the Gentiles, that one   
   should have his father's wife.   
      
   2 And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath   
   done this deed might be taken away from among you.   
      
   3 For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged   
   already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this   
   deed,   
      
   4 In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together,   
   and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ,   
      
   5 To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh,   
   that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.   
      
   6 Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth   
   the whole lump?   
      
   7 Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye   
   are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:   
      
   8 Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, neither with the   
   leaven of malice and wickedness; but with the unleavened bread of   
   sincerity and truth.   
      
   9 I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators:   
      
   10 Yet not altogether with the fornicators of this world, or with the   
   covetous, or extortioners, or with idolaters; for then must ye needs go   
   out of the world.   
      
   11 But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that   
   is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a   
   railer, or a drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.   
      
   12 For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye   
   judge them that are within?   
      
   13 But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among   
   yourselves that wicked person.   
      
   1 Corinthians Chapter 6   
      
   1 Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to law before the   
   unjust, and not before the saints?   
      
   2 Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world   
   shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters?   
      
   3 Know ye not that we shall judge angels? how much more things that   
   pertain to this life?   
      
   4 If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them   
   to judge who are least esteemed in the church.   
      
   5 I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among   
   you? no, not one that shall be able to judge between his brethren?   
      
   6 But brother goeth to law with brother, and that before the unbelievers.   
      
   7 Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law   
   one with another. Why do ye not rather take wrong? why do ye not rather   
   suffer yourselves to be defrauded?   
      
   8 Nay, ye do wrong, and defraud, and that your brethren.   
      
   9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God?   
   Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor   
   effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,   
      
   10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor   
   extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.   
      
   11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified,   
   but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of   
   our God.   
      
   12 All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient: all   
   things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any.   
      
   13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: 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.   
      
   14 And God hath both raised up the Lord, and will also raise up us by   
   his own power.   
      
   15 Know ye 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.   
      
   16 What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body?   
   for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.   
      
   17 But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.   
      
   18 Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but   
   he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.   
      
   19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost   
   which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?   
      
   20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body,   
   and in your spirit, which are God's.   
      
   1 Corinthians Chapter 7   
      
   1 Now concerning the things whereof ye wrote unto me: It is good for a   
   man not to touch a woman.   
      
   2 Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife,   
   and let every woman have her own husband.   
      
   3 Let the husband render unto the wife due benevolence: and likewise   
   also the wife unto the husband.   
      
   4 The wife hath not power of her own body, but the husband: and likewise   
   also the husband hath not power of his own body, but the wife.   
      
   5 Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time,   
   that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together   
   again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency.   
      
   6 But I speak this by permission, and not of commandment.   
      
   7 For I would that all men were even as I myself. But every man hath his   
   proper gift of God, one after this manner, and another after that.   
      
   8 I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, It is good for them if   
   they abide even as I.   
      
   9 But if they cannot contain, let them marry: for it is better to marry   
   than to burn.   
      
   10 And unto the married I command, yet not I, but the Lord, Let not the   
   wife depart from her husband:   
      
   11 But and if she depart, let her remain unmarried, or be reconciled to   
   her husband: and let not the husband put away his wife.   
      
   12 But to the rest speak I, not the Lord: If any brother hath a wife   
   that believeth not, and she be pleased to dwell with him, let him not   
   put her away.   
      
   13 And the woman which hath an husband that believeth not, and if he be   
   pleased to dwell with her, let her not leave him.   
      
   14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the   
   unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children   
   unclean; but now are they holy.   
      
   15 But if the unbelieving depart, let him depart. A brother or a sister   
   is not under bondage in such cases: but God hath called us to peace.   
      
   16 For what knowest thou, O wife, whether thou shalt save thy husband?   
   or how knowest thou, O man, whether thou shalt save thy wife?   
      
   17 But as God hath distributed to every man, as the Lord hath called   
   every one, so let him walk. And so ordain I in all churches.   
      
   18 Is any man called being circumcised? let him not become   
   uncircumcised. Is any called in uncircumcision? let him not be circumcised.   
      
   19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing, but the   
   keeping of the commandments of God.   
      
   20 Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.   
      
   21 Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest
