Clean Bodies

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;

Purify me with hyssop, and I will be clean; wash me, and I will be whiter than snow.

Therefore, beloved, since we have these promises, let us cleanse ourselves from everything that defiles body and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

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,

Make every effort to present yourself approved to God, an unashamed workman who accurately handles the word of truth.

Do you not know that you yourselves are God’s temple, and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?

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.
