18 Run away from every kind of wrong sex! Every other wrong thing which a person does is done outside of his body. But the person who uses sex the wrong way does a wrong thing to his own body.
28 So husbands should love their wives as they love their own bodies. The man who loves his wife loves himself.
29 No one ever hated his own body. But he feeds it and takes care of it.
14 How can Christ agree with Belial, the devil? How can a person who believes work with a person who does not believe?
4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous. Love is not proud and does not boast.
5 Love does not do things that are not nice. Love does not just think of itself. Love does not get angry. Love holds no wrong feelings in the heart.
6 Love is not glad when people do wrong things. But it is always glad when they do right.
7 Love forgives everything. Love is always trusting, and always hoping, and never gives up.
3 Do not try to prove you are better than others. Do not be proud of yourselves, but be humble. Think of other people as being better than yourselves.
4 Each one of you should not think only about himself, but about other people also.
14 Beside all these, you must have love. This joins everything together as it should be.
5 Do not keep from the other what is right for them to have. It is all right to stay from each other for a while, if you both agree to it. Then you will have time for prayer. Afterwards, come together again. If you do not, Satan might tempt you to do wrong.
4 Everyone must respect marriage. And the bed must be kept clean. God will punish those who use their bodies for wrong sex.
28 But I tell you that if a man looks at a woman and he wants her, then he has already committed adultery with her in his heart.
28 So husbands should love their wives as they love their own bodies. The man who loves his wife loves himself.
18 Wives, obey your husbands. This is the right way to live when you belong to the Lord.
19 Husbands, love your wives and do not be unkind to them.
25 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church people. He gave his life for the church.
33 However, each one of you should love his wife as he loves himself. And the wife should respect her husband.
3 The husband should give his wife what is right. So also, the wife should give her husband what is right.
4 The wife does not have full right over her own body. But her husband has a right to it. In the same way, the husband does not have full right over his own body. But his wife has a right to it.
7 Husbands, also live with your wife the way you know is right. Respect her because she is a woman. She is not as strong as a man. Also respect her because God has given her, as well as you, the blessing of life. In this way, you will not stop God from doing what you ask him to do.
15 Thank God for everything. This is what God wants you to do through Christ Jesus.
6 So they are not two people any more, but they are one person. Man must not separate what God has joined together.
32 But I tell you, no man may send away his wife unless she has committed adultery. If he does send her away, he is making her commit adultery. And if a man marries a woman who has been sent away from her husband, he commits adultery.
19 Husbands, love your wives and do not be unkind to them.
25 So stop telling lies. Tell the truth to each other. We all are parts of the same body.
26 When you are angry, do not do anything wrong. And do not stay angry after the sun goes down.
27 Do not let the devil control you.
28 The person who used to steal must not steal now. But he must do some good work with his own hands. Then he will have something to give to the poor people.
29 Do not let any bad words come out of your mouth. But say good things that will help people. Then those who hear you will also be blessed by what you say.
30 Do nothing that makes the Holy Spirit feel sad. He is the mark God has put on you until the day you will belong to God altogether.
31 You must stop all hate, big and small anger, loud talk, saying wrong things about people, and all wanting to do wrong things to people.
32 Be kind to one another. Have a loving and understanding heart. Forgive one another because God has forgiven you for Christs sake.
10 And here is what I say to those who are married. (And yet it is not what I say. It is what the Lord has said.) The wife may not leave her husband.
11 But if she does leave him, she must not marry again, or she must come back to her husband again. And the husband may not send away his wife.
12 Here is what I say to other people. (This is my word, not the Lords.) Perhaps a Christian brother has a wife who is not a Christian. If she wants to stay with him, then he should not send her away.
