It is God’s will that you avoid sexual immorality. Learn to control your own body. Make your body holy and honorable to the Lord. Do not be consumed with passionate lust. In this matter, no one should wrong his brother or take advantage of him. The Lord will punish men for all such sins. 1 Thessalonians 4:3-6
