| Lust,
Fornication, and Adultry
Old
Testament
For the lips of a strange
woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is
smoother than oil: But her end is bitter as
wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword. Proverbs
5:3-4
To keep thee from the evil
woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a
strange woman. Lust not after her beauty in
thine heart; neither let her take thee with
her eyelids. Proverbs 6:24-25
But whoso committeth adultery
with a woman lacketh understanding: he that
doeth it destroyeth his own soul. A wound and
dishonour shall he get; and his reproach shall
not be wiped away. Proverbs 6:32-33
New
Testament
Whosoever looketh on a woman
to lust after her hath committed adultery with
her already in his heart. And if thy right eye
offend thee, pluck it out, and cast it from
thee: for it is profitable for thee that one
of thy members should perish, and not that thy
whole body should be cast into hell. And if
thy right hand offend thee, cut it off.
Matthew 5:28-30
And he saith unto them,
Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry
another, committeth adultery against her. And
if a woman shall put away her husband, and be
married to another, she committeth adultery.
Mark 10:11-12
Know ye not that the
unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of
God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor
idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor
abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor
thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor
revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the
kingdom of God. And such were some of you: but
ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye
are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus,
and by the Spirit of our God. 1st Corinthians
6:9-11
Mortify therefore your members
which are upon the earth; fornication,
uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil
concupiscence, and covetousness, which is
idolatry: Colossians 3:5
Flee also youthful lusts: but
follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace,
with them that call on the Lord out of a pure
heart. 2nd Timothy 2:22
