Bible Verses on Lust

Posted on the 16 June 2014 by Savio Menezes
But I tell you that everyone who gazes at a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already in his heart.  Matt 5:28
 Flee sexual immorality! “Every sin that a man does is outside the body,” but he who commits sexual immorality sins against his own body. 1Cor 6:18
For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality, that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor, not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who do not know God;  that no one should take advantage of and wrong a brother or sister in this matter; because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we forewarned you and testified.  1Thess 4:3-6
If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God. Set your mind on the things that are above, not on the things that are on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, your life, is revealed, then you will also be revealed with him in glory. Put to death, therefore, whatever is worldly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, lust, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. Because of these, the wrath of God is coming on the sons of disobedience. Col 3:1-6
Now the works of the flesh are obvious, which are: sexual immorality, uncleanness, lustfulness, idolatry, sorcery,hatred, strife, jealousies, outbursts of anger, rivalries, divisions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these; of which I forewarn you, even as I also forewarned you, that those who practice such things will not inherit the Kingdom of God.  Gal 5:19-21
Beloved, I beg you as foreigners and pilgrims, to abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul  1 Peter 2:11
Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the bed be undefiled: for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers.  Heb 13:4
Jesus said, “That which  proceeds out of the man, that defiles the man. For from within, out of the hearts of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, sexual sins, murders, thefts, covetings, wickedness, deceit, lustful desires, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, and foolishness. All these evil things come from within, and defile the man.”  Mark 7:20-23
