Bible verses about "attraction" | Twentieth_Century

⁹ Do not you know that wrong-doers will have no share in God's Kingdom? Do not be deceived. No one who is immoral, or an idolater, or an adulterer, or licentious, or a sodomite, ¹⁰ Or a thief, or covetous, or a drunkard, or abusive, or grasping, will have any share in God's Kingdom.

¹⁵ Do not love the world or what the world can offer. When any one loves the world, there is no love for the Father in him; ¹⁶ for all that the world can offer--the gratification of the earthly nature, the gratification of the eye, the pretentious life--belongs, not to the Father, but to the world. ¹⁷ And the world, and all that it gratifies, is passing away, but he who does God's will remains for ever.

²⁴ Do not judge by appearances; judge justly."

⁴ Let marriage be honoured by all and the married life be pure; for God will judge those who are immoral and those who commit adultery.

¹ Though I speak in the 'tongues' of men, or even of angels, yet have not Love, I have become mere echoing brass, or a clanging cymbal! ² Even though I have the gift of preaching, and fathom all hidden truths and all the depths of knowledge; even though I have such faith as might move mountains, yet have not Love, I am nothing! ³ Even though I dole my substance to the poor, even though I sacrifice my body, that I may boast, yet have not Love, it avails me nothing! ⁴ Love is long-suffering, and kind; Love is never envious, never boastful, never conceited, never behaves unbecomingly; ⁵ Love is never self-seeking, never provoked, never reckons up her wrongs; ⁶ Love never rejoices at evil, but rejoices in the triumph of Truth; ⁷ Love bears with all things, every trustful, ever hopeful, ever patient. ⁸ Love never fails. But, whether it be the gift of preaching, it will be done with; whether it be the gift of 'tongues,' it will cease; whether it be knowledge, it, too, will be done with. ⁹ For our knowledge is incomplete, and our preaching is incomplete, ¹⁰ But, when the Perfect has come, that which is incomplete will be done with. ¹¹ When I was a child, I talked as a child, I felt as a child, I reasoned as a child; now that I am a man, I have done with childish ways. ¹² As yet we see, in a mirror, dimly, but then-face to face! As yet my knowledge is incomplete, but then I shall know in full, as I have been fully known. ¹³ Meanwhile Faith, Hope, and Love endure-these three, but the greatest of these is Love.

¹⁸ Shun all immorality. Every other sin that men commit is something outside the body; but an immoral man sins against his own body.

³ For this is God's purpose--that you should be pure; abstaining from all immorality; ⁴ Each of you recognizing the duty of taking one woman for his wife, purely and honorably, ⁵ And not for the mere gratification of his passions, like the Gentiles who know nothing of God;

³ Yours should be, not the external adornment of the arrangement of the hair, the wearing of jewelry, or the putting on of dresses, ⁴ but the inner life with the imperishable beauty of a quiet and gentle spirit; for this is very precious in God's sight. ⁵ It was by this that the holy women of old, who rested their hopes on God, adorned themselves; submitting to their husbands, ⁶ as Sarah did, who obeyed Abraham, and called him master. And you are her true children, as long as you live good lives, and let nothing terrify you. ⁷ Again, those of you who are married men should live considerately with their wives, showing due regard to their sex, as weaker than their own, and not forgetting that they share with you in the gift of Life. Then you will be able to pray without hindrance.
