1 Corinthians 6:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 [a]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?
3 Know ye not that we shall judge the Angels? how much more things that pertain to this life?
4 [b]If then ye have [c]judgments of things pertaining to this life, set them up which are [d]least esteemed in the Church.

- 1 Corinthians 6:2 He gathereth by a comparison that the faithful cannot seek to infidels to be judged, without great injury done to the Saints, seeing that God himself will make the Saints judges of the world, and of the devils, with his Son Christ: much more ought they to judge these light and small causes: which may be by equity, and good conscience, determineth.
- 1 Corinthians 6:4 The conclusion, wherein he prescribeth a remedy for this mischief: to wit, if they end their private affairs betwixt themselves by chosen arbiters out of the Church: for which matter and purpose, the least of you, saith he, is sufficient. Therefore he condemneth not judgment seats, but showeth what is expedient for the circumstance of the time, and that without any diminishing of the right of the magistrate: for he speaketh not of judgments which are practiced between the faithful and the infidels, neither of public judgments, but of controversies which may be ended by private arbiters.
- 1 Corinthians 6:4 Courts and places of judgments.
- 1 Corinthians 6:4 Even the most abject among you.
