You can also find such pointed counsel on morality as : “ This is what God wills , the sanctifying of you , that you abstain from fornication ; that each one of you should know how to get possession of his own vessel in sanctification and honor , not in covetous sexual appetite such as also those nations have which do not know God ; that no one go to the point of harming and encroach upon the rights of his brother in this matter , . . . for God called us , not with allowance for uncleanness , but in connection with sanctification . ” ​ — 1 Thessalonians 4 : 3 - 7 . 17 Bonke abantu bayizithutha, kabalakwazi; wonke umkhandi uyangiswa yizithombe zakhe, ngoba izithombe zakhe ezibunjiweyo ziyinkohliso, kazilamphefumulo. 18 Ziyize nje, zingumsebenzi wenkohliso, ngesikhathi sempindiselo yazo zizabhubha. 19 UNkulunkulu kaJakobe kanjengazo; ngoba yena nguye owadala zonke izinto, uIsrayeli yisizwe asikhethayo; yi Nkosi yamabandla ibizo lakhe.
