1 Corinthians 6:18
_ _ Flee — The only safety in such temptations is flight (Genesis 39:12; Job 31:1).
_ _ Every sin — The Greek is forcible. “Every sin whatsoever that a man doeth.” Every other sin; even gluttony, drunkenness, and self-murder are “without,” that is, comparatively external to the body (Mark 7:18; compare Proverbs 6:30-32). He certainly injures, but he does not alienate the body itself; the sin is not terminated in the body; he rather sins against the perishing accidents of the body (as the “belly,” and the body’s present temporary organization), and against the soul than against the body in its permanent essence, designed “for the Lord.” “But” the fornicator alienates that body which is the Lord’s, and makes it one with a harlot’s body, and so “sinneth against his own body,” that is, against the verity and nature of his body; not a mere effect on the body from without, but a contradiction of the truth of the body, wrought within itself [Alford]. |
1 Corinthians 6:18
Flee fornication — All unlawful commerce with women, with speed, with abhorrence, with all your might. Every sin that a man commits against his neighbour terminates upon an object out of himself, and does not so immediately pollute his body, though it does his soul. But he that committeth fornication, sinneth against his own body — Pollutes, dishonours, and degrades it to a level with brute beasts. |
1 Corinthians 6:18
(13) Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.
(13) Another argument why fornication is to be avoided, because it defiles the body with a peculiar type of filthiness. |

Proverbs 2:16-19 To deliver thee from the strange woman, [even] from the stranger [which] flattereth with her words; ... None that go unto her return again, neither take they hold of the paths of life.

Proverbs 6:24-32 To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman. ... [But] whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he [that] doeth it destroyeth his own soul.
Proverbs 7:5-23 That they may keep thee from the strange woman, from the stranger [which] flattereth with her words. ... Till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it [is] for his life.
Proverbs 7:24-27 Hearken unto me now therefore, O ye children, and attend to the words of my mouth. ... Her house [is] the way to hell, going down to the chambers of death.
Proverbs 9:16-18 Whoso [is] simple, let him turn in hither: and [as for] him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him, ... But he knoweth not that the dead [are] there; [and that] her guests [are] in the depths of hell.
Romans 6:12-13 Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof. ... Neither yield ye your members [as] instruments of unrighteousness unto sin: but yield yourselves unto God, as those that are alive from the dead, and your members [as] instruments of righteousness unto God.
2 Timothy 2:22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
