What does the Bible say about sexual immorality?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible clearly condemns sexual immorality, calling believers to abstain from practices such as fornication and lust in order to please God.

In 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5, Paul admonishes believers to abstain from sexual immorality, including fornication and lustful desires. Such behaviors not only displease God but also contradict the call to holiness every believer is expected to uphold. Sexual immorality is viewed as a significant sin that grieves the Holy Spirit and demonstrates a life lived contrary to God's will. The call to holiness involves understanding that believers are sanctified and called to a life that reflects their identity as children of God, abstaining from behaviors that the world accepts but are contrary to God's intentions for marriage and sexuality.
