ActThom
[1]Dare any of you, having business against another, be judged under the unjust, and not under the Saints? [No book]
[2]Do ye not know, that the Saints shall judge the world? If the world then shall be judged by you, are ye unworthy to judge the smallest matters? [No book]
[3]Know ye not that we shall judge the Angels? how much more things that pertain to this life? [No book]
[4]If then ye have judgments of things pertaining to this life, set up them which are least esteemed in the Church. [No book]
[5]I speak it to your shame. Is it so that there is not a wise man among you? no not one, that can judge between his brethren? [No book]
[6]But a brother goeth to law with a brother, and that under the infidels. [No book]
[7]Now therefore there is utterly a fault among you, because ye go to law one with another: why rather suffer ye not wrong? why rather sustain ye not harm? [No book]
[8]Nay, ye yourselves do wrong, and do harm, and that to your brethren. [No book]
[9]Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor wantons, nor buggerers, [No book]
[10]Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor railers, nor extortioners shall inherit the kingdom of God. [No book]
[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. [No book]
[12]Â All things are lawful unto me: but all things are not profitable. I may do all things, but I will not be brought under the power of any thing. [No book]
[13]Meats are ordained for the belly, and the belly for the 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. [No book]
[14]And God hath also raised up the Lord, and shall raise us up by his power. [No book]
[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. [No book]
[16]Do ye not know, that he which coupleth himself with an harlot, is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh. [No book]
[17]But he that is joined unto the Lord, is one spirit. [No book]
[18]Flee fornication: every sin that a man doeth, is without the body: but he that committeth fornication, sinneth against his own body. [No book]
[19]Know ye not, that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost, which is in you, whom ye have of God? And ye are not your own. [No book]
[20]For ye are bought for a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit: for they are God's. [No book]
