New Testament

1 Thessalonians 4:1-5 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

1. Finally, brothers and sisters, we taught you how to live in a way that pleases God. In fact, that is how you are living. In the name of the Lord Jesus we ask and beg you to do it more and more.

2. You know the directions we gave you. They were given by the authority of the Lord Jesus.

3. God wants you to be made holy. He wants you to stay away from sexual sins.

4. He wants all of you to learn to control your own bodies. You must live in a way that is holy. You must live with honor.

5. Don't long to commit sexual sins like those who don't know God.
