14 And aGod both raised up the Lord and will also raise us up bby His power.  
15 Do you not know that ayour bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? Certainly not!  
16 Or do you not know that he who is joined to a harlot is one body with her? For a“the two,” He says, “shall become one flesh.”  
17 aBut he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.

19 Or ado you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, band you are not your own?

1 Corinthians 6:15

I Corinthians 6:15 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? This is a doctrine emphasized by Paul. Our bodies are a part of Christ's mystical body, the Lord's holy temple, designed for the indwelling of the Spirit. How sacrilegious to take a member of Christ's body and degrade it to fornication, or to any act of licentiousness! It is a duty which a Christian owes to Christ to keep his body pure. As the arm or finger has the life of the body until cut off, so we have the life of Christ until we sever ourselves from him by sinful acts.
