START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION
(KJV) 1 Corinthians 5:6
Your glorying is not good. Know ye not that a little leaven leaveneth the whole lump?
LITTLE YEAST WORKS THROUGH THE WHOLE BATCH / 1 CORINTHIANS 5:6
Paul uses a comparison between a common element that they all knew of and the spiritual principle that the church needs to learn about purity and discipline in the church. He uses the example of yeast being forbidden when preparing the bread to be eaten at the Passover Feast (Exodus 12:15). In the Bible, “yeast” (which brings about a reaction that causes change) is often mentioned as a symbol of evil or sin. Like the yeast, sin is able to spread through an entire church congregation or Christian community and corrupt its commitment to truth and authentic spiritual life (Galatians 5:7-9; Exodus 13:7; Mark 8:15). Any church that does not take radical action against sexual immorality among its members will find the influence of evil spreading throughout the congregation and infecting many. Eventually, this can cause the Holy Spirit to withdraw His godly influence and power from the church (Revelation 2-3).
