1 Thessalonians 4:3-5

For this is God's purpose--that you should be pure; abstaining from all immorality; Each of you recognizing the duty of taking one woman for his wife, purely and honorably, And not for the mere gratification of his passions, like the Gentiles who know nothing of God;

1 Corinthians 7:1-9

With reference to the subjects about which you wrote to me: It would be well for a man to remain single. But, owing to the prevalence of immorality, I advise every man to have his own wife, and every woman her husband. A husband should give his wife her due, and a wife her husband.read more.
It is not the wife, but the husband, who exercises power over her body; and so, too, it is not the husband, but the wife, who exercises power over his body. Do not deprive each other of what is due-unless it is only for a time and by mutual consent, so that your minds may be free for prayer till you again live as man and wife-lest Satan should take advantage of your want of self-control and tempt you. I say this, however, as a concession, not as a command. I should wish every one to be just what I am myself. But every one has his own gift from God-one in one way, and one in another.

But, if they cannot control themselves, let them marry, for it is better to marry than to be consumed with passion.
