1 Corinthians 5

This chapter draws directly from Passover imagery.

Just as Israel removed leaven before the feast and sacrificed the lamb, Christ is declared our true Passover Lamb. His sacrifice marks a new beginning — a purified people redeemed by blood.

Removing leaven points to the cleansing work of Christ, who calls His people to live in sincerity and truth. The protective discipline of the church reflects God’s own desire to restore, not destroy.

The Lamb has been slain.
The house must be cleansed.
And holiness now flows from redemption.

1 Corinthians 5

(Verse 1)

A report has reached my ears —

Of sin so open, so severe,

Even the world would turn away

From what is named among you today.

And yet you boast, as though unaware,

While poison moves through sacred air.

Should you not mourn? Should grief not rise?

For holiness before God’s eyes?

(Verse 2)

Remove the one who walks in pride,

Who keeps his sin and will not hide.

Not cruelty — but trembling care,

To guard the flock from hidden snare.

When gathered in the Lord’s great Name,

With Christ’s own power and holy flame,

Deliver such a one to pain —

That soul, not flesh, be saved again.

(Chorus)

A little leaven spreads through all,

A quiet rise before the fall.

Clean out the old, let sin depart,

For Christ our Passover guards the heart.

Unleavened now by truth and grace,

Let purity define this place.

(Verse 3)

For Christ, our Lamb, has now been slain —

The spotless One who bore our shame.

So let us keep the feast anew,

With honest lives and hearts made true.

Not with malice, not with deceit,

But truth and light in what we keep.

(Verse 4)

I wrote to you — not to withdraw

From every sinner under law,

Else you must leave this broken land

And flee the world by your own hand.

But if one claims the name of Christ

Yet walks in darkness unadvised —

Persistent, proud, refusing light —

Then fellowship must guard what’s right.

(Ending)

God judges those who stand outside;

But cleanse the sin that dwells inside.

Remove the evil from your midst —

For love protects what God has blessed.
