Marital Sex

And concerning the things of which ye wrote to me: good <FI>it is<Fi> for a man not to touch a woman, — read the full passage →

honourable <FI>is<Fi> the marriage in all, and the bed undefiled, and whoremongers and adulterers God shall judge.

and if they have not continence--let them marry, for it is better to marry than to burn;

flee the whoredom; every sin--whatever a man may commit--is without the body, and he who is committing whoredom, against his own body doth sin.

but I--I say to you, that every one who is looking on a woman to desire her, did already commit adultery with her in his heart.

for this is the will of God--your sanctification; that ye abstain from the whoredom, — read the full passage →

And manifest also are the works of the flesh, which are: Adultery, whoredom, uncleanness, lasciviousness,

have ye not known that the unrighteous the reign of God shall not inherit? be not led astray; neither whoremongers, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor sodomites,

`for this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife, and they shall be--the two--for one flesh;'

Defraud not one another, except by consent for a time, that ye may be free for fasting and prayer, and again may come together, that the Adversary may not tempt you because of your incontinence;

the meats <FI>are<Fi> for the belly, and the belly for the meats. And God both this and these shall make useless; and the body <FI>is<Fi> not for whoredom, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body;

but to write to them to abstain from the pollutions of the idols, and the whoredom, and the strangled thing; and the blood;

and said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and cleave to his wife, and they shall be--the two--for one flesh?

what therefore God did join together, let not man put asunder.'

For all things I have strength, in Christ's strengthening me;

and whoredom, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as becometh saints;

A revelation of Jesus Christ, that God gave to him, to shew to his servants what things it behoveth to come to pass quickly; and he did signify <FI>it<Fi> , having sent through his messenger to his servant John,

for God did not call us on uncleanness, but in sanctification;
