That

Consequently, there is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.

For, though walking in flesh, we are not warring according to the flesh,

Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge.

In the

Wherefore, God gave them up in the desires of their hearts unto the uncleanness of dishonoring their bodies among themselves;

Or 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 men,

who, indeed, having become without feeling, delivered themselves up to lasciviousness for the working of all uncleanness with greediness.

For this ye know, assuredly, that no fornicator, nor unclean person, nor covetous man (who is an idolater), has any inheritance in the Kingdom of Christ and God.

Make dead, therefore, your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which, indeed, is idolatry;

For God did not call us unto uncleanness, but in sanctification.

For there crept in stealthily certain men, who of old were set forth for this condemnation, ungodly men, changing the grace of our God into lasciviousness; and denying the only Master and our Lord Jesus Christ.

Despise

Let every soul be in subjection to the authorities that are over him; for there is no authority, except from God; and the authorities that are have been appointed by God.

Submit yourself to every human ordinance, for the Lord's sake; whether to a king as supreme;

Selfwilled

For the bishop must be blameless, as God's steward; not self-willed, not soon angry, not given to wine, not a striker, not greedy of base gain;

To speak

And Paul said, "I knew not, brethren, that he was high priest; for it has been written, 'You shall not speak evil of a ruler of your people.'"

Yet, in like manner, these also, indulging in dreams, defile, indeed, the flesh, and set at nought dominion, and rail at dignities.
