1 Corinthians 6

1 - 11 Lawsuits Among Believers

Paul is against taking problems to the Roman courts. It's even worse when a believer goes against another believer in an unbeliever's court.

12 - 20 Glorify God in Body and Spirit

Paul corrects the Corinthians on what it means to be faithful to the gospel. 13 "Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food," and God will destroy both one and the other. The body is meant not for fornication but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

19. Here it says the body is a temple of the Holy Spirit (and not your own). In 20 we must remember that we were bought for a price, and therefore, we must glorify God in the body.
