6 that no man [a]transgress, and wrong his brother in the matter: because the Lord is an avenger in all these things, as also we [b]forewarned you and testified. 7 For God called us not for uncleanness, but in sanctification. 8 Therefore he that rejecteth, rejecteth not man, but God, who giveth his Holy Spirit unto you.
