1 Corinthians 6:9-20

9Or 1do you not know that the unrighteous will not 2inherit the kingdom of God? 3Do not be deceived; 4neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor 5homosexuals, 10nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor those habitually drunk, nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers, will 6inherit the kingdom of God. 117Such were some of you; but you were 8washed, but you were 9sanctified, but you were 10justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and 11in the Spirit of our God.

1212All 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. 1313Food is for the stomach and the stomach is for food, however God will 14do away with both 15of them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but 16for the Lord, and 17the Lord is for the body. 14Now God has not only 18raised the Lord, but 19will also raise us up through His power. 1520Do you not know that 21your bodies are parts of Christ? Shall I then take away the parts of Christ and make them parts of a prostitute? 2223Far from it! 16Or 24do you not know that the one who joins himself to a prostitute is one body with her? For He says, “25The two shall become one flesh.” 17But the one who joins himself to the Lord is 26one spirit with Him. 1827Flee sexual immorality. Every other sin that a person commits is outside the body, but the 28sexually immoral person sins against his own body. 19Or 29do you not know that 30your body is a 31temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from 32God, and that 33you are not your own? 20For 34you have been bought for a price: therefore glorify God in 35your body.
