Finally then, brethren, we urge and exhort in the Lord Jesus that you should abound more and more, just as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God;
2
for you know what commandments we gave you through the Lord Jesus.
3
For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you should abstain from sexual immorality;
4
that each of you should know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor,
5
not in passion of lust, like the Gentiles who do not know God;
6
that no one should take advantage of and defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also forewarned you and testified.
