Bible. Corinthians, 1st
006:006 But brother goes to law with brother, and that before unbelievers!
006:007 Therefore it is already altogether a defect in you, that you
have lawsuits one with another. Why not rather be wronged?
Why not rather be defrauded?
006:008 No, but you yourselves do wrong, and defraud, and that
against your brothers.
006:009 Or don't you know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom
of God? Don't be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral,
nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals,
006:010 nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers,
nor extortioners, will inherit the Kingdom of God.
006:011 Such were some of you, but you were washed. But you were sanctified.
But you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus,
and in the Spirit of our God.
006:012 "All things are lawful for me," but not all things are expedient.
"All things are lawful for me," but I will not be brought
under the power of anything.
006:013 "Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods,"
but God will bring to nothing both it and them.
But the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord;
and the Lord for the body.
006:014 Now God raised up the Lord, and will also raise us up
by his power.
006:015 Don't you know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then
take the members of Christ, and make them members of a prostitute?
May it never be!
006:016 Or don't you know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one body?
For, "The two," says he, "will become one flesh."{Genesis 2:24}
006:017 But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit.
006:018 Flee sexual immorality! "Every sin that a man does is outside
the body," but he who commits sexual immorality sins against
his own body.
006:019 Or don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit
which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own,
006:020 for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God
in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
007:001 Now concerning the things about which you wrote to me:
it is good for a man not to touch a woman.
007:002 But, because of sexual immoralities, let each man have his
own wife, and let each woman have her own husband.
007:003 Let the husband render to his wife the affection owed her,
and likewise also the wife to her husband.
007:004 The wife doesn't have authority over her own body, but the husband.
Likewise also the husband doesn't have authority over his
own body, but the wife.
007:005 Don't deprive one another, unless it is by consent for a season,
that you may give yourselves to fasting and prayer,
and may be together again, that Satan doesn't tempt you
because of your lack of self-control.
007:006 But this I say by way of concession, not of commandment.
