Bible verses about "desires" | Moffatt

²⁴ So God has given them up, in their heart's lust, to sexual vice, to the dishonouring of their own bodies, — ²⁵ since they have exchanged the truth of God for an untruth, worshipping and serving the creature rather than the Creator who is blessed for ever: Amen. ²⁶ That is why God has given them up to vile passions; their women have exchanged the natural function of sex for what is unnatural, ²⁷ and in the same way the males have abandoned the natural use of women and flamed out in lust for one another, men perpetrating shameless acts with their own sex and getting in their own persons the due recompense of their perversity.

¹⁸ Shun immorality! Any other sin that a man commits is outside the body, but the immoral man sins against his body.

¹³ let us live decorously as in the open light of day — no revelry or bouts of drinking, no debauchery or sensuality, no quarrelling or jealousy. ¹⁴ No, put on the character of the Lord Jesus Christ, and never think how to gratify the cravings of the flesh.

³³ Seek God's Realm and his goodness, and all that will be yours over and above.
