I Cor 6

I was a sinner. I was unrighteous and not in line to inherit the kingdom of God. But by God’s mercy and grace I was chosen and called to repentance. I was washed; I was sanctified; I was justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the spirit of God.

All things are lawful for me but I will not be dominated by anything. My body is meant for the Lord and the Lord for my body. I am joined to the Lord and become one spirit with him. My body is a temple for the Holy Spirit whom I have as a gift from God, and who dwells within me.  I am not my own. I have been bought with a price. I belong to God. By God’s presence and power, I lead the life that the Lord has assigned to me and to which God has called me.
