Corinthians 6:12-20
(12) "All things are lawful
for me," but not all things are helpful. "All things are lawful for
me," but I will not be enslaved by anything.
(13) "Food is meant for the
stomach and the stomach for food"--and God will destroy both one and the
other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but for the Lord, and the
Lord for the body.
(14) And God raised the Lord and
will also raise us up by his power.
(15) Do you not know that your
bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make
them members of a prostitute? Never!
(16) Or do you not know that he who
is joined to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written,
"The two will become one flesh."
(17) But he who is joined to the
Lord becomes one spirit with him.
(18) Flee from sexual immorality.
Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral
person sins against his own body.
(19) Or do you not know that your
body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are
not your own,
(20) for
you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
