1 Corinthians 6:10 KJV

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - 1 Corinthians 6:9-11

Here he takes occasion to warn them against many heinous evils, to which they had been formerly addicted. I. He puts it to them as a plain truth, of which they could not be ignorant, that such sinners should not inherit the kingdom of God. The meanest among them must know thus much, that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God (1 Cor. 6:9), shall not be owned as true members of his church on earth, nor admitted as glorious members of the church in heaven. All unrighteousness is... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - 1 Corinthians 6:9-11

6:9-11 Are you not aware that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Make no mistake--neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor sensualists, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor rapacious men, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor robbers shall inherit the Kingdom of God--and such were some of you.

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - 1 Corinthians 6:10

Nor thieves ,.... Who take away another man's property, secret or openly, by fraud or force. Nor covetous : insatiable, in the lust of uncleanness; or greedy of worldly gain, bent upon increasing their substance at any rate, by circumvention, fraud, and deceit; and do not use the things of this life as they should, for their own good, and that of others. Nor drunkards who are strong to drink strong liquors; who give up themselves thereunto: who sit down on purpose to intoxicate... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Corinthians 6:1-11

Civil relations and Church membership; litigation before heathen courts. The chapter opens abruptly. "Dare any of you"—a strong expression of disapproval—"having a matter against another, go to law before the unjust?" Judaism had taught the Jews not to go before Gentile judges with a lawsuit against their brethren; the Romans had accorded to the Jews the right to settle their disputes among themselves, and Christians at that time might avail themselves of this rule (Lunge). But St. Paul,... read more

Genuine reformation. "Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the Name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God." Reformation of... read more

Our inheritance in peril I. WHAT OUR INHERITANCE IS . "The kingdom of God:" present, but chiefly future. Of which Peter speaks ( 2 Peter 3:13 ), "We, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness."

Before and after: two pictures. The apostle reminds them that wrong doing of every kind excludes from the kingdom of God, and that consequently their quarrels and litigation are bringing them into danger. They are forgetting the meaning of their conversion. I. OUR ORIGINAL CONDITION . Though this dark picture is meant to represent sinners at Corinth, its general features are universally applicable. 1. Sin is various, yet one. The branches are many, but they grow out of the... read more
