Flee Sexual Immorality

1 Corinthians 6

12 h All things are lawful for me, but all things are not 1 helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of 2 any. 13 i Foods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for j sexual immorality but k for the Lord, l and the Lord for the body. 14 And m God both raised up the Lord and will also raise us up n by His power. 15 Do you not know that o your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! 16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For p "the two," He says, "shall become one flesh." 3 17 q But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him. 18 r Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins s against his own body. 19 Or t do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, u and you are not your own? 20 For v you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body 4 and in your spirit, which are God's.
