‏ 1 Corinthians 6:15

v. 15-17: Paul explains that a Christian’s body is a member of Christ. He asks, Shall I then take the members of Christ and make them members of a harlot? (1 Corinthians 6:15 a). The thought is shocking, and Paul responds, God forbid!. He reminds them that sexual sin creates a deep, physical connection, as Scripture says, The two shall become one flesh (Genesis 2:24 b). But the Christian is united to Christ and is one spirit with Him (1 Corinthians 6:17 c). This close union with Christ should prevent believers from joining themselves with sin.
