1 Corinthians 6:10 - Barnes' Notes

1 Corinthians 6:10

8 No, you yourselves do wrong and cheat, and you do these things to your brethren!

9 Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. ^aNeither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor¹ homosexuals, nor sodomites,

10 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.

11 And such were ^asome of you. ^bBut you were washed, but you were¹ sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.

Glorify God in Body and Spirit

12 ^aAll things are lawful for me, but all things are not¹ helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of² any.

13 ^aFoods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for ^bsexual immorality but ^cfor the Lord, ^dand the Lord for the body.

1 Corinthians 6:10

Nor covetous; - See the note at I Corinthians 5:10. It is remarkable that the apostle always ranks "the covetous" with the most abandoned classes of people.

Nor revilers - The same word which in I Corinthians 5:11, is rendered railer; see the note at that place.

Nor extortioners - See the note at I Corinthians 5:11.

Shall inherit - Shall enter; shalt be saved, I Corinthians 6:9.
