1 Corinthians 6:1

Dare any of you, having a matter against another, go to be judged before the unjust, and not before the saints?

Meat for the belly, and the belly for the meats; but God shall destroy both it and them: but the body is not for fornication, but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body.

Or know you not, that he who is joined to a harlot, is made one body? For they shall be, saith he, two in one flesh.

1 Corinthians 6:17

But he who is joined to the Lord, is one spirit.

Fly fornication. Every sin that a man doth, is without the body; but he that committeth fornication, sinneth against his own body.

For you are bought with a great price. Glorify and bear God in your body.
