What does 1 Corinthians 6 teach about judging others?
Answered in 1 source
1 Corinthians 6 teaches believers to judge matters within the church rather than taking disputes before secular courts.
In 1 Corinthians 6, Paul emphasizes the importance of resolving disputes among believers internally, as members of the body of Christ should possess the wisdom needed to make determinations without relying on unjust secular authorities. He asserts that Christians should be able to address their grievances in a way that upholds the integrity of the church. Paul argues that even the least esteemed believer has the capacity to judge small matters, and he encourages believers to be willing to suffer wrong rather than bring shame and division to the church by airing their disputes publicly. Making judgments within the church reflects understanding and love for the body of Christ.
