The Church would do well to purge itself of
πορνεία (porneia) among all its members.
The spread of porneia and its wide acceptance have corrupted the general society. Marriage is not a cure for depravity.
- Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that commiteth fornication sinneth against his own body.
...
- Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted.
...
- Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
...
- But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ;
- How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts.
- These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.
- But ye, beloved, building up yourselves on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Ghost,
- Keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.
- And of some have compassion, making a difference:
- And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
