Are there Bible Verses on fornication? Yes, there are and I am sure you are surprised I started out asking that question. With the ugly and ungodly events in our world today, it appears we don’t have these bible passages on fornication and adultery again in the Bible. The world is abandoning what God’s Word is teaching!

Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body” (1 Corinthians 6:18)2. “But fornication and all uncleanness or covetousness, let it not even be named among you, as is fitting for saints…” (Ephesians 5:3) 3. “Therefore put to death your members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry” (Colossians 3:5).
- “Marriage is honorable among all, and the bed undefiled, but fornicators and adulterers God will judge” (Hebrew 13:4). 5. “For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness. All these evil things come from within and defile a man” (Mark 7:21-23).

Proverbs 7:2 shows us, “Keep my commands and live, and my law as the apple of your eye”. Sex sins anger God so much because it is done against our body which is His place of habitation or living place. Don’t allow Him to vent His anger on you if you continuously carry out acts that inflict injury on His living place.

Read Margaret’s Story
Perhaps, you should listen to Margaret who describes how she had several opportunities to flee fornication but ended up getting involved in it which almost claimed her life:
“Having been involved in Christian works as a Christian since my early years, I must confess that I have had the opportunity of listening to a series of sermons and advice on the evils of fornication. I knew about the consequences. I knew God detests it. I have kept myself from it for many years and I had the resolution to stay a virgin until I get married. However, I broke this resolution and sinned against God and my body”.
