Day 18 in the Word: 1 Corinthians 6:9-11

About the passage

Paul digs in deep on the impact of actions. This is not suggesting that God is not gracious, but rather we, as His followers, have a true responsibility. His list of wrongs is substantial. There is a wide brush that he paints with. When done, the realities of Romans 3:23 “All have sinned” rings true. I'm so thankful for the finished work of Jesus. His sacrifice “For God so loved the World” is the only sufficient answer.

Day 18: 1 Corinthians 6: 9-11

⁹ Don’t you realize that those who do wrong will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don’t fool yourselves. Those who indulge in sexual sin, or who worship idols, or commit adultery, or are male prostitutes, or practice homosexuality, ¹⁰ or are thieves, or greedy people, or drunkards, or are abusive, or cheat people—none of these will inherit the Kingdom of God. ¹¹ Some of you were once like that. But you were cleansed; you were made holy; you were made right with God by calling on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
