1 Corinthians 6:18-20 (New Living Translation)
"Run from sexual sin! No other sin so clearly affects the body as this one does. For sexual immorality is a sin against your own body. Don’t you realize that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God? You do not belong to yourself, for God bought you with a high price. So you must honor God with your body."
This scripture from 1 Corinthians emphasizes the importance of living a pure and honorable life, recognizing that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. It encourages believers to flee from sexual immorality, understanding the sacredness of the body as a dwelling place for God's Spirit.
