Abstinence

But because there is so much sexual immorality, each man should have his own wife, and each woman her own husband.

Marriage should be honored by all and the marriage bed kept undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

For it is God’s will that you should be holy: You must abstain from sexual immorality;

…each of you must know how to control his own body in holiness and honor,

Flee from sexual immorality. Every other sin a man can commit is outside his body, but he who sins sexually sins against his own body.

Flee from youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, together with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

Beloved, I urge you, as foreigners and exiles, to abstain from the desires of the flesh, which war against your soul.

Do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;

Put to death, therefore, the components of your earthly nature: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desires, and greed, which is idolatry.
