1 Corinthians 5

 Dealing With a Case of Incest
5 It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and of a kind that even pagans do not tolerate: A man is sleeping with his father’s wife. 2 And you are proud! Shouldn’t you rather have gone into mourning and have put out of your fellowship the man who has been doing this? 3 For my part, even though I am not physically present, I am with you in spirit. As one who is present with you in this way, I have already passed judgment in the name of our Lord Jesus on the one who has been doing this. 4 So when you are assembled and I am with you in spirit, and the power of our Lord Jesus is present, 5 hand this man over to Satan for the destruction of the flesh,[a][b] so that his spirit may be saved on the day of the Lord.

 6 Your boasting is not good. Don’t you know that a little yeast leavens the whole batch of dough? 7 Get rid of the old yeast, so that you may be a new unleavened batch—as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed. 8 Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old bread leavened with malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

 9 I wrote to you in my letter not to associate with sexually immoral people— 10 not at all meaning the people of this world who are immoral, or the greedy and swindlers, or idolaters. In that case you would have to leave this world. 11 But now I am writing to you that you must not associate with anyone who claims to be a brother or sister[c] but is sexually immoral or greedy, an idolater or slanderer, a drunkard or swindler. Do not even eat with such people.

 12 What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? 13 God will judge those outside. “Expel the wicked person from among you.”[d]

Does God love Christ? August 22nd

 “And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.” JOHN 17:26
Here in John 17 the Lord prayed that the love with which the Father loved Him would be in us! The same love that is between the Father and the Son is now in us. How is it in us? The Lord said, “I in them.” When He gets into us then the same love is flowing in us. When we sing or pray a little, just exercising our spirit, we discover that there is liquid love flowing there. That liquid love is the Father and the Son loving one another right within our spirit. When we sing and pray, we are merging into Their love. We are taking the on-ramp into the freeway-flow of the Father and the Son. They are loving one another and enjoying one another, and we have an on-ramp in our spirit to merge into Their love. Hallelujah, there is only one love in this universe. It is the love that is flowing between the Father and the Son. There is not another love that God has toward us. There is only one love. It is the love of the Father for the Son. And that love has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit (Rom. 5:5). Brothers and sisters, we are in Christ. We are included in this beloved One. You ask, Does God love me? Actually, you need to change your question to, Does God love Christ? You are in Christ. If you are in Christ, you cannot help but be loved because we know that God loves Christ. You are in the object of the Father’s love. Regardless of our condition, we are eternally the objects of divine love and divine grace.
