1 Corinthians 6:15-20

15 1Do you not know that 2your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them members of a prostitute? 3May it never be!

16Or 4do you not know that the one who joins himself to a prostitute is one body with her? For He says, “5The two shall become one flesh.”

17But the one who joins himself to the Lord is 6one spirit with Him.

18 7Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the 8immoral man sins against his own body.

19Or 9do you not know that 10your body is a 11temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from 12God, and that 13you are not your own?

20For 14you have been bought with a price: therefore glorify God in 15your body.
