Hot take: Some Christians are more afraid of looking judgmental than they are of letting sin grow unchecked.

Yeah, I said it.

In today’s world, “Don’t judge me” has become the ultimate defense—but in 1 Corinthians 5–8, Paul flips that idea on its head.

He shows us that love isn’t just soft and accepting. Sometimes, love confronts. Sometimes, love has to say, “This can’t continue.”

In these chapters, Paul addresses some weighty and relevant issues:

👉 Church discipline

👉 Sexual purity

👉 Lawsuits among believers

👉 Relationships and singleness

👉 The tension between knowledge and love in our Christian freedom

These aren’t just rules—they’re a call to live not just by what we can do, but by what actually builds up others and honors God.

It’s bold. It’s uncomfortable. But it’s necessary for real spiritual growth.

So grab your Bible, your journal, and an open heart—let’s walk through the Word together.
