Paixão

4 Each of you should know how to control yourself. Honour your body to make it holy.

5 Do not have sex with a person you are not married to. Control your strong feelings. Do not act like the people who do not know God.

11 Live good lives among the people who do not believe. They may talk about you as if you do wrong things. But when they see the good things you do, they will praise God on the day he comes to help you.

5 So then, put to death those things of this world which are in you. I mean these things: wrong sex, things that are not clean, a heart that is burning to do wrong things, wanting what is wrong, and wanting to have what other people have. This last one is like worshipping an idol.

24 The Spirit gives us life. And so we should do what the Spirit wants us to do.

31 So, whether you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do everything to bring praise to God.

3 The time is coming when people will not listen to good teaching. They will want to listen to the things they like to hear. And they will bring in many teachers who will teach them just what they want to do.

4 They will not listen to what is true, but will turn away and listen to strange stories.

26 That is why God left them to do the wrong things they wanted to do. Their women left the right way for women and did things that are wrong for women to do.

27 Their men also left the right way with women. They wanted to have sex with one another. They did wrong things with other men. Their own bodies were punished because of the wrong things they did.

9 But if they cannot keep themselves under control, then they should marry. It is better to marry than to burn with desire for sex.

3 You ask for it, but you do not get it, because you ask in a wrong way. You want to use it for yourselves and not for others.
