Masturbation

But Onan knew that the offspring would not be his, so whenever he slept with his brother’s wife, he released his semen on the ground so that he would not produce offspring for his brother.

“When a man has an emission of semen, he is to bathe himself completely with water, and he will remain unclean until evening.

Any clothing or leather on which there is an emission of semen is to be washed with water, and it will remain unclean until evening.

If a man sleeps with a woman and has an emission of semen, both of them are to bathe with water, and they will remain unclean until evening.

If there is a man among you who is unclean because of a bodily emission during the night, he must go outside the camp; he may not come anywhere inside the camp.

Don’t lust in your heart for her beauty or let her captivate you with her eyelashes.

For a prostitute’s fee is only a loaf of bread, but the wife of another man goes after a precious life.

Can a man embrace fire and his clothes not be burned?

Can a man walk on burning coals without scorching his feet?

So it is with the one who sleeps with another man’s wife; no one who touches her will go unpunished.

But I tell you, everyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

Flee sexual immorality! Every other sin a person commits is outside the body, but the person who is sexually immoral sins against his own body.

Don’t you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own,

for you were bought at a price. So glorify God with your body.

For this is God’s will, your sanctification: that you keep away from sexual immorality,

that each of you knows how to control his own body in holiness and honor,

Marriage is to be honored by all and the marriage bed kept undefiled, because God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.

For everything in the world — the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride in one’s possessions — is not from the Father, but is from the world.

And the world with its lust is passing away, but the one who does the will of God remains forever.

Likewise, Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding towns committed sexual immorality and perversions, and serve as an example by undergoing the punishment of eternal fire.
