Be not deceived : neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.

Pàgina 47 - Likewise, however it be accounted for, the criminal commerce of the sexes corrupts and depraves the mind and moral character more than any single species of vice whatsoever. That ready perception of guilt, that prompt and decisive resolution against it, which constitutes a virtuous character, is seldom found in persons addicted to these indulgences. They prepare an easy admission for every sin that seeks it...
Pàgina 11 - He goeth after her straightway, as an ox goeth to the slaughter, or as a fool to the correction of th stocks; till a dart strike through his liver; as a bird hasteth to the snare, and knoweth not that it is for his life.
Pàgina 73 - For, to avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife, and every woman her own husband...
Pàgina 65 - For the lips of a strange woman drop as an honeycomb, and her mouth is smoother than oil: but her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged sword. Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell.
