1 Corinthians 5:2

Immoral Behavior And Church Discipline

¹ It is actually reported [everywhere] that there is sexual immorality among you, a kind of immorality that is condemned even among the [unbelieving] Gentiles: that someone has [an intimate relationship with] his father’s wife. ² And you are proud and arrogant! You should have mourned in shame so that the man who has done this [disgraceful] thing would be removed from your fellowship! ³ For I, though absent [from you] in body but present in spirit, have already passed judgment on him who has committed this [act], as if I were present.
