Marriage » The duties of a wife
Wives, be subject to your own husbands, as to the Lord.
Wives, be in subjection to your husbands, as is fitting in the Lord.
Concerning the things that you wrote to me: It is good for a man not to touch (have sex with) a woman. Nevertheless, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and let every woman have her own husband. Let the husband fulfill his marital duties to his wife and also the wife to her husband.
In like manner, you wives, be in subjection to your own husbands. Even if your husband does not obey God's word, he may be won without a word by observing the way you live. Your husband could see your chaste behavior coupled with respect (reverence). Your appearance should not come from the outward adornment, things like braiding the hair, and wearing jewels of gold, or wearing fine apparel. read more.
Let your appearance be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible apparel of a meek and quiet spirit. This is of great value in the sight of God. The holy women of old, who hoped in God, adorned themselves this way, being submissive to their own husbands. Sarah obeyed Abraham and called him lord. You are her children now, if you do what is right and are not fearful.

Sexual activities » Avoiding fornication
Foods are for the belly, and the belly for foods, but God will destroy both of them. Now the body is not for fornication but for the Lord, and the Lord is for the body. God has resurrected the Lord, and will also resurrect us by his own power. Do you not know that your bodies are the members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ, and unite them with (turn them into) the members of a prostitute? God forbid! read more.
What? Do you not know that he who is joined to a prostitute is one (united with her) body? For he said: Two will be one flesh. He who is joined to the Lord is one (united with him in) spirit. Flee from fornication! Every sin that a man does is outside his body. But he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. What? Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit? That one (Greek: hos he ho which, that one) is in you. You received it from God. You are not your own. You are bought with a price! Therefore glorify God in your body.

Then come together again, that Satan may not tempt you because of your lack of self-control. But I speak this by concession and not by commandment. I prefer that all men were as I am. But every man has his proper gift from God, one after this manner, and another after that. I say therefore to the unmarried and widows, it is good for them if they stay unmarried like me. But if they cannot control themselves, let them marry. It is better to marry than to be inflamed [with lust].

Stoicism » Paul teaches » Celibacy
The wife is bound to her husband as long as he lives. If her husband dies, she is free to marry whom she wishes, only in the Lord. But she is happier if she remains as she is. This is my opinion and I think I also have the Spirit of God.

Now concerning virgins I have no commandment from the Lord. Yet I give my opinion as one who has obtained the mercy of the Lord to be faithful. Because of the present distress I think it is good for you to remain as you are.
I want you to be free from anxiety. He who is unmarried cares for the things that belong to the Lord, how he may please the Lord. But he who is married cares for the things that are of the world, how he may please his wife.
