Notes

1 Corinthians 6:13–14

"Food for the stomach and the stomach for food": Some Corinthian Christians used this idea to justify their sexual immorality. They claimed, "The body was made for sex, and sex for the body." This analogy is false because our bodies were made for the Lord, and sexual immorality does not honor him. Given his care for our bodies and the future resurrection, we must use our bodies for holy purposes in God's service.

1 Corinthians 6:12–20

Paul provides several reasons why Christians should avoid sexual immorality.
