1 Corinthians 6:3

Don’t you know that we are to try angels – to say nothing of the affairs of this life?

Open English Bible (US)

In The King James Version

In Context

2Don’t you know that Christ’s people will try the world? And if the world is to be tried by you, are you unfit to try the most trivial cases?

4Why, then, if you have cases relating to the affairs of this life, do you set to try them those who carry no weight with the church? To your shame I ask it.
