Bible: 1 Thessalonians 4:3-8
4:3 For this is God’s will: that you become holy, 1 that you keep away from sexual immorality, 4:4 that each of you know how to possess his own body 2 in holiness and honor, 4:5 not in lustful passion like the Gentiles who do not know God. 4:6 In this matter no one should violate the rights of his brother or take advantage of him, 3 because the Lord is the avenger in all these cases, 4 as we also told you earlier and warned you solemnly. 4:7 For God did not call us to impurity but in holiness. 4:8 Consequently the one who rejects this is not rejecting human authority 5 but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.
