that each of you should learn to control your own body in a way that is holy and honorable,

He wants all of you to learn to control your own bodies. You must live in a way that is holy. You must live with honor.

that each one of you know how to control his own body in holiness and honor,

Then each of you will control his own body and live in holiness and honor—

that each of you knows how to control his own body in holiness and honor,

that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor,

that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor,

so that each of you knows how to control his own body in sanctification and honor,

That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;

that each of you know how to possess his own body in holiness and honor,

that each one of you know how to control his own body in sanctification and honor,

But if they do not have self control, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.

Do you not know that your bodies are parts of Christ? Shall I then take away the parts of Christ and make them parts of a prostitute? Far from it!

You husbands in the same way, live with your wives in an understanding way, as with someone weaker, since she is a woman; and show her honor as a fellow heir of the grace of life, so that your prayers will not be hindered.

Therefore I urge you, brothers and sisters, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.

Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled; for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

But because of sexual immoralities, each man is to have his own wife, and each woman is to have her own husband.

Flee sexual immorality. Every other sin that a person commits is outside the body, but the sexually immoral person sins against his own body.Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit within you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own?For you have been bought for a price: therefore glorify God in your body.

Or does the potter not have a right over the clay, to make from the same lump one object for honorable use, and another for common use?What if God, although willing to demonstrate His wrath and to make His power known, endured with great patience objects of wrath prepared for destruction?And He did so to make known the riches of His glory upon objects of mercy, which He prepared beforehand for glory,

But we have this treasure in earthen containers, so that the extraordinary greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves;

But the Lord said to him,“ Go, for he is a chosen instrument of Mine, to bear My name before the Gentiles and kings and the sons of Israel;

David answered the priest and said to him,“ Be assured, women have been denied to us as previously when I left and the bodies of the young men were consecrated, though it was an ordinary journey; how much more then will their bodies be consecrated today?”

I am speaking in human terms because of the weakness of your flesh. For just as you presented the parts of your body as slaves to impurity and to lawlessness, resulting in further lawlessness, so now present your body’s parts as slaves to righteousness, resulting in sanctification.

Therefore God gave them up to vile impurity in the lusts of their hearts, so that their bodies would be dishonored among them.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

Now in a large house there are not only gold and silver implements, but also implements of wood and of earthenware, and some are for honor while others are for dishonor.Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from these things, he will be an implement for honor, sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.
