Lawsuits Between Believers

9 Do not you know that wrong-doers will have no share in God's Kingdom? Do not be deceived. No one who is immoral, or an idolater, or an adulterer, or licentious, or a sodomite, 10 Or a thief, or covetous, or a drunkard, or abusive, or grasping, will have any share in God's Kingdom. 11 Such some of you used to be; but you washed yourselves clean. You became Christ's People! you were pronounced righteous through the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and through the Spirit of our God!
