Thematic Bible: Those that commit fornication
Thematic Bible
Sexual activities » Those that commit fornication
Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them are an example for they, in like manner with these surrendered to fornication and went after flesh for unnatural use. They received justice by ever burning fire. In like manner these men also in their dreams defile the flesh, reject authority and speak evil of glorious ones. Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil disputed about the body of Moses. He did not speak evil judgment against him in abusive terms, but said: Jehovah rebukes you. (Zechariah 3:2) read more.
These men speak abusively about things they do not know. What they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, they corrupt themselves. Woe to them! They went in the way of Cain, and ran riotously in the error of Balaam for hire, and perished in the rebellious talk of Korah. These men are hidden rocks in your love feasts when they feast (entertain) with you. They are shepherds that without fear feed themselves. They are clouds without water, carried along by winds. They are autumn leaves without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots. They are wild waves of the sea, foaming out their own shame. They are wandering stars, for which the black darkness has been reserved forever. Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about these, saying: Behold, Jehovah came with many thousands of his holy ones. They execute judgment upon all. They convict all the ungodly of all their wicked behavior, deeds that they have committed in an irreverent way, and of all the hard things those detestable sinners have spoken against him. These murmur, complain, and walk after their lusts, they speak arrogantly, flattering people to gain advantage.

Flee from fornication! Every sin that a man does is outside his body. But he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body.
