11 But now I have written to you not to keep company awith anyone named a brother, who is sexually immoral, or covetous, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or an extortioner—bnot even to eat with such a person.  
12 For what have I to do with judging those also who are outside? Do you not judge those who are inside?
13 But those who are outside God judges. Therefore a“put away from yourselves the evil person.”

1 Corinthians 5:13

I Corinthians 5:13 Them that are outside God judgeth. The unconverted are left in the hands of God. He will judge them according to their deeds. We are not asked to seek to inflict punishment on them by shunning them, but rather to go to them in the love of Christ to try to lead them to repentance. Therefore put away from among yourselves that wicked person. A summary order to execute discipline upon the incestuous offender, an order that we know from the second letter was obeyed.
