Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ, shall I now take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid. Do ye not know that he which coupleth him? self with an harlot, is become one body. For two saith he shall be one flesh. But he that is joined to the Lord is one▪ spirit ⟨image 98⟩whoredom. Every sin that a man doth is without the body. But he that is a whoremonger sinneth against his own body. Know ye not how that your bodies are the temple of the holy ghost, which dwell in you whom ye have of god, and how ye are not your own. For ye are dearly bought. Therefore glorify god in your bo dyes and in your spirits, which are gods.
