"Flee immorality. Every other sin that a man
commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his own body.
Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in
you, whom you have from God and that you are not your own? For you have been
bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body."
1 Corinthians 6:18-20

time of need."
