Glorifying God

Everything is lawful for me.
But not helpful would be all things;
I won’t be controlled all I see,
No matter what temptation brings.

Food is destined for the stomach,
But God will destroy either one;
Sex is not for running amuck,
Immoral behavior as done.

For the Lord is for the body,
And the Father had raised the Lord;
To keep it righteous and holy,
Raising power to be adored.

For you are a member of Christ
Not as a house of ill repute;
Where men are always enticed,
By harlot’s attempt to recruit.

Men will become as one to them,
One body with the prostitute;
And such actions God will condemn,
For behavior to execute.

Flee from lustful iniquity,
With the body people commit;
Establish righteous purity,
To keep you spiritually fit.

For Your body is a temple,
Of the Holy Spirit in you;
Not for you or other people,
For sexual lust to pursue.

For you were bought having a price,
With your body glorify God;
Not to let heart and soul entice,
That God you should honor and laud.
