1 Thessalonians 4:5
“not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don't know God;”
Verse in context — 1 Thessalonians 4
3
For this is the will of God: your sanctification, that you abstain from sexual immorality,
4
that each one of you know how to possess himself of his own vessel in sanctification and honor,
5
not in the passion of lust, even as the Gentiles who don't know God;
6
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.
7
For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification.
