哥林多前书第六章第12—20节，保罗说基督徒虽然凡事都可行，但基督徒行事为人是出于爱心，因此一件事情若是损坏他人，我们就不做，不要被任何事情所辖制，特别是犯罪的事情。保罗劝勉弟兄们要逃避淫行，人所犯的无论什么罪都在身体以外，惟有淫行是得罪自己的身体，因为我们的身体是圣灵的殿，而圣灵是从神而来住在身体里头；并且，我们是基督的人，是基督在十字架上受难用重价买来的，因此，要在我们的身体和灵上荣耀基督和我们的天父。
林前6:12 凡事我都可行．但不都有益处。凡事我都可行、但无论那一件、我总不受他的辖制。
"All things are lawful for me," but not all things are expedient. "All things are lawful for me," but I will not be brought under the power of anything.
林前6:13 食物是为肚腹、肚腹是为食物．但 神要叫这两样都废坏。身子不是为淫乱、乃是为主．主也是为身子．
"Foods for the belly, and the belly for foods," but God will bring to nothing both it and them. But the body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
林前6:14 并且 神已经叫主复活、也要用自己的能力叫我们复活。
Now God raised up the Lord, and will also raise us up by his power.
林前6:15 岂不知你们的身子是基督的肢体么．我可以将基督的肢体作为娼妓的肢体么．断乎不可。
Don't you know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them members of a prostitute? May it never be!
林前6:18 你们要逃避淫行。人所犯的、无论甚么罪、都在身子以外．惟有行淫的、是得罪自己的身子。
Flee sexual immorality! "Every sin that a man does is outside the body," but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
林前6:19 岂不知你们的身子就是圣灵的殿么．这圣灵是从 神而来、住在你们里头的．并且你们不是自己的人．
Or don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit which is in you, which you have from God? You are not your own,
林前6:20 因为你们是重价买来的．所以要在你们的身子上荣耀 神。
for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's.
