Thematic Bible






For you know this with certainty, that no fornicator, no unclean person, no covetous man, who is an idolater, has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no one deceive you with empty words. It is because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. Do not be partakers with them.

But we know that the Law is good, if a man uses it legitimately. Knowing this, that Law is not made for a righteous person. It is for the lawless and unruly, the ungodly and sinners, for the unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, and for manslayers. It is for fornicators, for abusers of themselves with men, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and everything else that is contrary to the sound teaching.

I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Blessed are those who obey his commandments. They have the right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates of the city. Outside are the dogs (impure men) and those who practice spiritism, and fornicators, and murderers, and idolaters, and everyone who tells lies.'

I saw among the simple ones, I discerned among the youth, a young man without understanding. He passed through the street near her corner. He went to her house. In the twilight, in the evening, in the darkness of the night: He met an evil hearted woman dressed seductively like an immoral woman. She is loud and rebellious and never stays at home. Now in the streets and squares, she waits at every corner. She put her arms around him and kissed him, and with an impudent look she said: I have peace offerings with me since I paid my vows. So I came to meet you and seek your presence. I found you. I covered my bed with fine linen from Egypt. I perfumed my bed with myrrh, aloes, and cinnamon. Come; let us take our fill of love until morning. Let us comfort ourselves with love. My husband is not at home. He went on a long trip. He took a bag of money with him. He will come home at the appointed day. She seduced him with her persuasive words. She forced him with her flattering lips. He immediately goes after her. He is like a bull that goes to the slaughter. Or as a fool to the correction of the stocks, Till a dart strikes through his liver. The bird hurries to the snare without knowing it would cost his life.
