“As for me, this is my covenant with them,” says Yahweh. “My Spirit who is on you, and my words which I have put in your mouth shall not depart out of your mouth, nor out of the mouth of your offspring, nor out of the mouth of your offspring’s offspring,” says Yahweh, “from now on and forever.”

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.

He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who disbelieves will be condemned.

And because you are children, God sent out the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, “Abba, Father!”

For the mind of the flesh is death, but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace;

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,

Flee from youthful lusts; but pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

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

envy, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit God’s Kingdom.

Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. He who overcomes won’t be harmed by the second death.

But he, turning around, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, and said, “Get behind me, Satan! For you have in mind not the things of God, but the things of men.”

Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh.

For I am Yahweh your God. Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am holy. You shall not defile yourselves with any kind of creeping thing that moves on the earth.

Who can bring a clean thing out of an unclean? Not one.

Lying lips are an abomination to Yahweh, but those who do the truth are his delight.

He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then he got up, rebuked the wind and the sea, and there was a great calm.

He said to all, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me.

The Word became flesh, and lived among us. We saw his glory, such glory as of the one and only Son of the Father, full of grace and truth.

the Spirit of truth, whom the world can’t receive; for it doesn’t see him and doesn’t know him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.

and by him everyone who believes is justified from all things, from which you could not be justified by the law of Moses.

For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

but I see a different law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity under the law of sin which is in my members.

For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God.

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 beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.

For first of all, when you come together in the assembly, I hear that divisions exist among you, and I partly believe it.

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

even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we would be holy and without defect before him in love,

We also all once lived among them in the lusts of our flesh, doing the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, even as the rest.

Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, depraved passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

For there is an annulling of a foregoing commandment because of its weakness and uselessness

Where do wars and fightings among you come from? Don’t they come from your pleasures that war in your members?

I will come near to you to judgment; and I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, and against the adulterers, and against the perjurers, and against those who oppress the hireling in his wages, the widow, and the fatherless, and who deprive the foreigner of justice, and don’t fear me,” says Yahweh of Armies.

But you, when you pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”

Jesus answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is the bondservant of sin.

You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and doesn’t stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

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.

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.

But if the Spirit of him who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.

For it has been reported to me concerning you, my brothers, by those who are from Chloe’s household, that there are contentions among you.

But if you bite and devour one another, be careful that you don’t consume one another.

for the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth,

You also once walked in those, when you lived in them;

For our exhortation is not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deception.

instructing us to the intent that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we would live soberly, righteously, and godly in this present age;

Follow after peace with all men, and the sanctification without which no man will see the Lord,

For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.

Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul;

but chiefly those who walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement and despise authority. Daring, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries;

promising them liberty, while they themselves are bondservants of corruption; for a man is brought into bondage by whoever overcomes him.

But for the cowardly, unbelieving, sinners, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their part is in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”

For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit, the things of the Spirit.

for you are still fleshly. For insofar as there is jealousy, strife, and factions among you, aren’t you fleshly, and don’t you walk in the ways of men?

For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.

For we were also once foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving various lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another.

That which is born of the flesh is flesh. That which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

For when we were in the flesh, the sinful passions which were through the law worked in our members to bring out fruit to death.

For I know that in me, that is, in my flesh, dwells no good thing. For desire is present with me, but I don’t find it doing that which is good.

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.

For if you live after the flesh, you must die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.

It is actually reported that there is sexual immorality among you, and such sexual immorality as is not even named among the Gentiles, that one has his father’s wife.

Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.

that again when I come my God would humble me before you, and I would mourn for many of those who have sinned before now, and not repented of the uncleanness, sexual immorality, and lustfulness which they committed.

For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, that you may not do the things that you desire.

For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,

For we have spent enough of our past time doing the desire of the Gentiles, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunken binges, orgies, carousings, and abominable idolatries.

Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

“ ‘You shall not lie carnally with your neighbor’s wife, and defile yourself with her.

As for the deeds of men, by the word of your lips, I have kept myself from the ways of the violent.

One has committed abomination with his neighbor’s wife; and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law. Another in you has humbled his sister, his father’s daughter.

Let’s walk properly, as in the day; not in reveling and drunkenness, not in sexual promiscuity and lustful acts, and not in strife and jealousy.

Know this for sure, that no sexually immoral person, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God.
