3 For this is the will of God, *your sanctification:**that you abstain from sexual immorality; 4 that each one of you know how to control his own *body* in holiness and *honor, 5 not in *the passion of lust *like the Gentiles *who do not know God; 6 that no one transgress and *wrong his brother in this matter, because the Lord is *an avenger in all these things, as we told you beforehand and solemnly warned you. 7 For *God has not called us for *impurity, but in holiness.
