1 Corinthians Chapter 6 of the Bible addresses various ethical matters within the early Christian community. It begins by criticising believers for taking legal disputes before non-believers rather than resolving them amongst themselves, suggesting this shows a lack of wisdom and is a defeat in itself. The text then lists a series of behaviours that will prevent someone from inheriting the kingdom of God, including sexual immorality, idolatry, theft, and greed, while reminding the readers that some of them had previously engaged in such practices but had been cleansed. Finally, the passage focuses heavily on sexual immorality, emphasising that believers' bodies are members of Christ and temples of the Holy Spirit, urging them to flee from sexual sin and honour God with their bodies because they were bought at a price.
