1 When one of you has some complaint against a Christian brother, why does he take him to be judged by those who are not Christians? Why does he not take him to Gods people?

2 Do you not know that some day Gods people will judge the world? If you are going to judge the world, can you not judge small things now?

3 Do you not know that we shall judge angels? Then we should surely be able to judge things in this life!

4 So if you have complaints about things in this life, why do you take them to those who are not church people?

5 Shame on you! Are none of you wise enough to judge between two Christian brothers?
