Purity - The Discipline Of Godliness Flashcards
1 Thessalonians 4:3-8
“For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
that every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:
that no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.”
Job 31:1
““I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a young woman.”
Proverbs 6:27
“Can a man scoop fire into his lap without his clothes being burned?”
Mark 9:42
““If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea.”
Ephesians 5:3-7
“But among you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people.
Nor should there be obscenity, foolish talk or coarse joking, which are out of place, but rather thanksgiving.
For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure or greedy person—such a person is an idolater—has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God’s wrath comes on those who are disobedient.
Therefore do not be partners with them.”
2 Timothy 2:22
“Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.”
