The Bible consistently warns believers to flee sexual immorality, emphasizing its destructive power and the call to holiness. In 1 Corinthians 6:18, Paul directly commands,
“Flee sexual immorality. Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.”
Sexual sin not only defiles the individual but also grieves the Holy Spirit and damages the body, which is the temple of God (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).
Immorality includes a wide range of sexual behaviors outside the covenant of marriage between a man and a woman, and the Bible calls these actions sinful and contrary to God's design for purity.
In 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5, Paul further instructs believers to “abstain from sexual immorality,” urging them to live in holiness and honor, not in passionate lust like the Gentiles who do not know God.
Sexual purity is a reflection of our identity in Christ and a testimony to the world of God’s sanctifying work in our lives. Believers are called to actively flee from these temptations, relying on God's strength to walk in purity and honor Him with their bodies.
