1 Corinthians 6:12-20
121All things are permitted for me, but not all things are of benefit. All things are permitted for me, but I will not be mastered by anything.
132Food is for the stomach and the stomach is for food, however God will 3do away with both 4of them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but 5for the Lord, and 6the Lord is for the body.
14Now God has not only 7raised the Lord, but 8will also raise us up through His power.
159Do you not know that 10your bodies are parts of Christ? Shall I then take away the parts of Christ and make them parts of a prostitute? 1112Far from it!
16Or 13do you not know that the one who joins himself to a prostitute is one body with her? For He says, “14The two shall become one flesh.”
17But the one who joins himself to the Lord is 15one spirit with Him.
1816Flee sexual immorality. Every other sin that a person commits is outside the body, but the 17sexually immoral person sins against his own body.
19Or 18do you not know that 19your body is a 20temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from 21God, and that 22you are not your own?
20For 23you have been bought for a price: therefore glorify God in 24your body.
