1 Corinthians 6:15

being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.

Don’t you know that you are a temple of God, and that God’s Spirit lives in you?

What agreement does a temple of God have with idols? For you are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, “I will dwell in them and walk in them. I will be their God and they will be my people.”

You also, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

To the woman he said, “I will greatly multiply your pain in childbirth. You will bear children in pain. Your desire will be for your husband, and he will rule over you.”

Or don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s Kingdom? Don’t be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals,

and you are Christ’s, and Christ is God’s.

He is the head of the body, the assembly, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things he might have the preeminence.

But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.

Because by the works of the law, no flesh will be justified in his sight; for through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

knowing this, that our old man was crucified with him, that the body of sin might be done away with, so that we would no longer be in bondage to sin.

For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Christ.

For we are the circumcision, who worship God in the Spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;

Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, “The Spirit who lives in us yearns jealously”?

I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me and I in him bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if it is so that the Spirit of God dwells in you. But if any man doesn’t have the Spirit of Christ, he is not his.

I don’t reject the grace of God. For if righteousness is through the law, then Christ died for nothing!”

but speaking truth in love, we may grow up in all things into him who is the head, Christ,

He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness. You were healed by his wounds.

Let’s rejoice and be exceedingly glad, and let’s give the glory to him. For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his wife has made herself ready.”

“You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”

“You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife. Neither shall you desire your neighbor’s house, his field, or his male servant, or his female servant, his ox, or his donkey, or anything that is your neighbor’s.”

Haven’t you known? Haven’t you heard? The everlasting God, Yahweh, the Creator of the ends of the earth, doesn’t faint. He isn’t weary. His understanding is unsearchable.

But let him who glories glory in this, that he has understanding, and knows me, that I am Yahweh who exercises loving kindness, justice, and righteousness in the earth, for I delight in these things,” says Yahweh.

But bring those enemies of mine who didn’t want me to reign over them here, and kill them before me.’ ”

But he spoke of the temple of his body.

But sin, finding occasion through the commandment, produced in me all kinds of coveting. For apart from the law, sin is dead.

so we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually members of one another,

Because there is one loaf of bread, we, who are many, are one body; for we all partake of the one loaf of bread.

But now they are many members, but one body.

He died for all, that those who live should no longer live to themselves, but to him who for their sakes died and rose again.

which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

from whom all the body, being fitted and knit together through that which every joint supplies, according to the working in measure of each individual part, makes the body increase to the building up of itself in love.

Therefore putting away falsehood, speak truth each one with his neighbor. For we are members of one another.

Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and fill up on my part that which is lacking of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for his body’s sake, which is the assembly,

For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

The man said, “This is now bone of my bones, and flesh of my flesh. She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken out of Man.”

May it be far from you to do things like that, to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous should be like the wicked. May that be far from you. Shouldn’t the Judge of all the earth do right?”

“Don’t think that I came to destroy the law or the prophets. I didn’t come to destroy, but to fulfill.

Don’t you understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the belly, and then out of the body?

because it doesn’t go into his heart, but into his stomach, then into the latrine, making all foods clean?”

For whoever will be ashamed of me and of my words, of him will the Son of Man be ashamed, when he comes in his glory, and the glory of the Father, and of the holy angels.

For I am not ashamed of the Good News of Christ, because it is the power of God for salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first, and also for the Greek.

Thus consider yourselves also to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Therefore, my brothers, you also were made dead to the law through the body of Christ, that you would be joined to another, to him who was raised from the dead, that we might produce fruit to God.

For even as we have many members in one body, and all the members don’t have the same function,

For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.

For a man indeed ought not to have his head covered, because he is the image and glory of God, but the woman is the glory of the man.

Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.

“We, being Jews by nature, and not Gentile sinners,

For I, through the law, died to the law, that I might live to God.

I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

Those who belong to Christ have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.

He put all things in subjection under his feet, and gave him to be head over all things for the assembly,

But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints;

because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones.

(all of which perish with use), according to the precepts and doctrines of men?

but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.

Does God pervert justice? Or does the Almighty pervert righteousness?

He will come and destroy these farmers, and will give the vineyard to others.” When they heard that, they said, “May that never be!”

that the ordinance of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

for the perfecting of the saints, to the work of serving, to the building up of the body of Christ,

Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.

that each one of you know how to control his own body in sanctification and honor,

In the same way, wives, be in subjection to your own husbands; so that, even if any don’t obey the Word, they may be won by the behavior of their wives without a word,

He said, “Far be it from me that I should do so. The man in whose hand the cup is found, he will be my slave; but as for you, go up in peace to your father.”

“ ‘Don’t profane your daughter, to make her a prostitute; lest the land fall to prostitution, and the land become full of wickedness.

Naboth said to Ahab, “May Yahweh forbid me, that I should give the inheritance of my fathers to you!”

Do we then nullify the law through faith? May it never be! No, we establish the law.

May it never be! We who died to sin, how could we live in it any longer?

Also, do not present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.

What then? Shall we sin, because we are not under law, but under grace? May it never be!

What shall we say then? Is the law sin? May it never be! However, I wouldn’t have known sin, except through the law. For I wouldn’t have known coveting, unless the law had said, “You shall not covet.”

Did then that which is good become death to me? May it never be! But sin, that it might be shown to be sin, was producing death in me through that which is good; that through the commandment sin might become exceedingly sinful.

“Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods,” but God will bring to nothing both it and them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.

Or don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,

But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God.

Examine your own selves, whether you are in the faith. Test your own selves. Or don’t you know about your own selves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.

But if while we sought to be justified in Christ, we ourselves also were found sinners, is Christ a servant of sin? Certainly not!

Is the law then against the promises of God? Certainly not! For if there had been a law given which could make alive, most certainly righteousness would have been of the law.

But far be it from me to boast, except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

For the husband is the head of the wife, as Christ also is the head of the assembly, being himself the savior of the body.

and not holding firmly to the Head, from whom all the body, being supplied and knit together through the joints and ligaments, grows with God’s growth.

May it never be! Yes, let God be found true, but every man a liar. As it is written, “that you might be justified in your words, and might prevail when you come into judgment.”

May it never be! For then how will God judge the world?
