A Call To Personal Purity

In this final major section of Paul's letter he begins by exhorting his readers by calling them to personal purity by reminding them to avoid sexual immorality. In light of the gross immorality surrounding the worship of the Greek and Roman gods, sexual immorality was a major problem in the early church, as evidenced by Paul's repeated rebuking of the Corinthian church. This message centers on this exhortation by Paul and the reason for it.
