¹²^hAll things are lawful for me, but all things are not ⁵helpful. All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of ⁶any. ¹³ⁱFoods for the stomach and the stomach for foods, but God will destroy both it and them. Now the body is not for ^jsexual immorality but ^kfor the Lord, ^land the Lord for the body. ¹⁴And ^mGod both raised up the Lord and will also raise us up ⁿby His power.

¹⁵Do you not know that ^oyour bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not! ¹⁶Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For ^p“the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.” ¹⁷^qBut he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.

¹⁸^rFlee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins ^sagainst his own body. ¹⁹Or ^tdo you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, ^uand you are not your own? ²⁰For ^vyou were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body ⁷and in your spirit, which are God’s.

Read in Logos

1 Corinthians 6:19–20: Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. So glorify God in your body.
