Flee Sexual Immorality
12c“All things are lawful for me,” but not all things are helpful. “All things are lawful for me,” but I will not be dominated by anything. 13d“Food is meant for the stomach and the stomach for food”—and God will destroy both one eand the other. The body is not meant for sexual immorality, but ffor the Lord, and gthe Lord for the body. 14And hGod raised the Lord and iwill also raise us up jby his power. 15Do you not know that kyour bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? Never! 16Or do you not know that he who is joined4 to a prostitute becomes one body with her? For, as it is written, l“The two will become one flesh.” 17But he who is joined to the Lord mbecomes one spirit with him. 18nFlee from sexual immorality. Every other sin5 a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person osins against his own body.
