Monday, November 9- 1 Corinthians 5:6-8

6Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast works through the whole batch of dough?
-Paul continues his rebuke. It doesn't take much sin to ruin. This is the case in an individual as well as a group. This is why its so important that we don't allow sin to linger. Even though it may be small it could have large consequences later.

7Get rid of the old yeast that you may be a new batch without yeast—as you really are. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed.
-We are this new bread without yeast. We should be without sin. Christ died to make us this way. It's a lucky thing to get a new start.

8Therefore let us keep the Festival, not with the old yeast, the yeast of malice and wickedness, but with bread without yeast, the bread of sincerity and truth.
-We need to live lives of this new bread. The yeast always seems to want to creep into our lives and ruin us, but we need to be on our guard for this. It doesn't take much to ruin us so we have to watch out for that. It's to easy to let that little in because we think its not a big deal.
