| '''Comments on "Connivance"''' 
|- 
| [[Christ]] and the [[prophets]] were clear but false men  claiming to be anointed of God<Ref name="falsechrist">{{falsechrist}}</Ref> have crept into houses and hearts to preach the [[doctrines of men]] that are not with out a perverted connivance.
|-
|  '''Someone sleeping with their step mother seems strange'''. Why does the rest of chapter 5 about other things that seem out of place. Should we question the modern consensus of the Spirit suspect a confusion?
|-
|  A relation with a step mother would be adultery rather than fornication.
|-
|  ''Pornia''<Ref name="pornia">{{4202}}</Ref> is a metaphor for "the [[worship]] of [[idols]]" and is far more common than step sons forming unnatural union with their new mothers. 
|-
| '''Benson Commentary''' states, "In the Old Testament '''whoredom sometimes signifies [[idolatry]]''', because the union of the Israelites with God as their king being '''represented by God himself as a marriage''', their giving themselves up to '''idolatry''' was considered as [[adultery]]." Both the terms of adultery and fornication are metaphors that can refer to our relationship with a [[harlot]] or [[Whore|whore]] that takes the place of the ''Bride of Christ'' which is the Church.
|-
|  of we look at the topics of Chapter 6 they are ''Not inherit the kingdom, Unrighteous vs Righteous, The wise and shameful, The deceived [[fornication|fornicating]] [[idolaters]], The [[Covetous|covetous]] [[extortioner|extortioners]], Things Lawful''.
|-
| If we look at Chapter 4 it was about the Faithful Stewards of service, Laboring to Bless, The servants of Tens with one Father, No rod but love. Is the father in Chapter 5 one of those ''[[Fathers] of the earth'' that Jesus told us not to pray too? 
|-
|  The reason we were not to call any man [[Father]] upon the earth was because the term was an in an office of governments that [[exercise authority]] in the provision of the [[dainties]] and [[benefits]] of the [[tables]] of [[rulers]] which are supposed to be for their [[Welfare|welfare]] but often become a [[snare]].
|-
|  [[Fornication]], [[idolatry]], and [[covetous practices]] all [[snare]] the people entangling them in a [[yoke of bondage]] because like the [[Corban]] of the [[Pharisees]] the make the [[Logos|word]] of God to none effect. [[The Way]] of Jesus includes the [[Corban of Christ]] according to the [[perfect law of liberty]] that provides [[social welfare]] in a [[daily ministration]] of [[pure Religion]] through [[faith]], [[hope]], and [[charity]].
|-
|  
|-
| The translation I see is more relevant and accurate, "But we hear about ''[[idolatry]]'' (metaphorically ''[[fornication]]''), and such fornication, which is what the nation is called, you are the wives of the father."<Ref>Ólos akoúetai en ymín porneía, kaí toiáfti porneía, ítis oudé en toís éthnesin onomázetai, óste gynaíká tina toú patrós échein.</Ref>
|-
|  The question now is who is the wife? 
|-
| All the ancient systems of social welfare were represented by a named goddess as a counter part to male god figure. There was the [[Turtledove|Turtledove goddesses]] of [[Sumer]]. The [[temple of Diana]], the temple of [[Roma]],  all providing [[social welfare]] in those [[Paganism|pagan]] [[temples]].

| Paul often used individual [[adultery]] and [[fornication]] to compare it to the national [[adultery]] that Christians in Corinth and others places were tempted by.
|-
| Paul shifts after mentioning [[fornication]] with your "father's wife" to talking about the people "gathered together" but fears being ''delivered'' "unto [[Satan]]" who is the ''adversary" of [[The Way]] of [[Christ]] and those '''adversaries are the [[rulers]] of the [[world]] who offer [[dainties]] and [[benefits]] at the  [[table]] of the [[social welfare]] State.

|  We were told to not to pray to the [[fathers]] of the earth by Jesus. <Ref name="fatherruler">{{fatherruler}}</Ref> The father or patros in the text may one of those [[Fathers]], who like the [[Patronus]] of [[Rome]] had a counter part in the [[Temple of Diana]] or ''[[Salus]] Semonia''(Latin: ''salus'', "safety", "salvation", "welfare").
|-
|  
|-
|  Then he mentions a "little leaven leaveneth the whole lump" and the "leaven of malice and wickedness". The question unfolds as to what is ''malicious''<Ref>{{2549}}</Ref> and ''wicked''<Ref>{{4189}}</Ref> leaven?
|-
| Keeping the "[[feasts]]" has to do with the [[daily ministration]] and that "gathering together" in the [[Tens]] and not being "fornicators of this [[World|world]]" of [[Rome]] or the [[Corban]] of the [[Pharisees]] and their [[covetous practices]]. We should " not eat" the [[free bread]] of or with those who would be counted "a fornicator, or [[covet]]ous, or an idolater, or a [[LOL|railer]], or a drunkard, or an extortioner" would make us extortioners and with [[idolatry|idolaters]]
|-
| He speaks of going out of the world which has to do with not depending on the [[world]], [[Satan]] and their [[covetous practices]] which take a [[bite]] out of one another and [[force]] the offerings of the people through [[Benefactors]] who exercise authority one over the other.

| "Christians are to avoid familiar converse with all who disgrace the Christian name.

| [[Saul]], [[Taxation]], [[freewill offerings]], [[welfare]]. [[wages of unrighteousness]], [[Sabbath]], The [https://www.usdebtclock.org/ national debt clock] is the result of [[covetous practices]] and failure to [[repent]] and [[seek]] the [[Kingdom of God]].
|-
| [[John the Baptist]] told us that providing for the needy though [[charity]] rather than [[force]] was primary to [[repent]]ance and [[seek]]ing the [[kingdom of God]] and His righteousness.

== Fornicators delivered to the adversary ==


1 ¶  It is reported commonly<[[3654]]> ''that there is'' [[fornication]]<[[4202|porneia]]> among you, and such [[fornication]] as is not so much as named among the [[Gentiles]]<[[1484]]>, that one should have his [[father]]’s [[Strange fire|wife]]. 

2  And ye are puffed up, and have not rather mourned, that he that hath done this deed might be taken away from among you. 

=== Deeds ===

3  For I verily, as absent in body, but present in spirit, have judged already, as though I were present, concerning him that hath so done this deed, 

=== Spirit gathers ===

4  In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, when ye are gathered together, and my spirit, with the power of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

5  To deliver such an one unto [[Satan]] for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus. 

6  Your glorying<Ref name="kauchema">{{2745}}</Ref> is not good. Know ye not that a little [[leaven]] leaveneth the whole lump?

== The old Leaven of pride == 

7 ¶  Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are un[[leaven]]ed. For even Christ our [[passover]] is sacrificed for us:

8  Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old [[leaven]], neither with the [[leaven]] of malice and [[wicked]]ness; but with the un[[leaven]]ed bread of sincerity<[[1505|purity]]> and [[truth]].

== Fornicators  or idolaters of the world ==

9 ¶  I wrote unto you in an epistle not to company with fornicators: 

10  Yet not altogether with the fornicators<Ref name="fornidols">{{fornidols}}</Ref> of this [[World|world]], or with the [[covetous]]<Ref name="covetnot">{{covetnot}}</Ref><Ref name="Isidolatry">{{Isidolatry}}</Ref>, or [[extortion]]ers, or with [[idolatry|idolaters]]<Ref name="fornidols">{{fornidols}}</Ref>; for then must ye needs go out of the [[World|world]]. 

=== Not keep company===

11  But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator<Ref name="fornidols">{{fornidols}}</Ref>, or [[covetous]], or an [[idolater]]<Ref name="fornidols">{{fornidols}}</Ref>, or a railer, or a drunkard, or an [[extortion]]er; with such an one no not to eat. 

=== Within and without ===

12  For what have I to do to judge them also that are without? do not ye judge them that are within? 

13  But them that are without God judgeth. Therefore put away from among yourselves that [[wicked]] person.
