who commits fornication sins against his own
          body. What? Don't you know that your body is
          the temple of the Holy Spirit, which is in you,
          which you have of God, and you are not your
          own?  For  you  are  bought  with  a  price:
          therefore glorify God in your body, and in your
          spirit, which belongs to God. 6 Dearly beloved, I

          beseech you as strangers and pilgrims  abstain
          from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul.

          7 Blessed is the man that endures temptation:
          for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown
          of  life,  which  the  Lord  has  promised  to  them
          that  love  him.  Let  no  one  say  when  he  is
          tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot

          be  tempted  with  evil,  neither  tempts  he  any
          man:  but  every  man  is  tempted,  when  he  is
          drawn away of his own lust and enticed. Then,
          when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin, and
          sin, when it is finished, brings forth death.

          8  For  this  is  the  will  of  God,  even  your
          sanctification  that  you  should  abstain  from

          fornication: that every one of you should know
          how  to  possess  his  body  in  sanctification  and
          honor;  not  in  the  desires  of  lust,  even  as  the
                              81
