26 Because of this, God gave up them to passions of dishonor. For even their females changed the natural use into that contrary to nature.
27 And likewise also the males, having left the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their desire toward one another, males with males, working out shame and receiving in themselves the recompense which was fitting of their error.

Romans 1:26-27
Romans 1:18-32
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven upon all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, suppressing the truth by unrighteousness,
19 because the known of God is manifest among them, for God has revealed it to them.
20 For from the creation of the world His invisible qualities, both His eternal power and divinity, are clearly seen, being understood by the things made, for them to be without excuse.
21 For having known God, they glorified Him not as God, or were thankful; but they became futile in their thinking and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing to be wise, they became fools,
23 and they changed the glory of the immortal God into a likeness of an image of mortal man and birds and quadrupeds and creeping things.
24 Therefore God gave them up in the desires of their hearts to impurity to dishonor their bodies between themselves,
25 who changed the truth of God into falsehood, and reverenced and served the created thing beyond the One having created it, who is blessed to the ages! Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave up them to passions of dishonor. For even their females changed the natural use into that contrary to nature.
27 And likewise also the males, having left the natural use of the female, were inflamed in their desire toward one another, males with males, working out shame and receiving in themselves the recompense which was fitting of their error.
28 And as they did not see fit to have God in their knowledge, God gave them up to a depraved mind, to do things not being proper;
29 being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, covetousness, malice; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness; gossips,
30 slanderers, hateful to God, insolent, arrogant, boastful; inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents;
31 foolish, untrustworthy, heartless, unmerciful;
32 who having known the righteous judgment of God, that those doing such things are worthy of death, not only are practicing them, but are also approving of those practicing them.

Romans 13:10-14
10 Love does not do evil to its neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the Law.

12 The night is nearly over, and the day has drawn near; therefore we should cast off the works of darkness and should put on the armor of light.
13 We should walk properly, as in daytime; not in reveling and drinking, not in sexual immorality and sensuality, not in dissension and jealousy.
14 But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh.
1 Corinthians 6:9-11
9 Or do you not know that the unrighteous ones will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor homosexuals,
10 nor thieves, nor coveters, not drunkards, nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers, will inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And some of you were such. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God.
Acts 16:1-40
1 And he came also to Derbe and to Lystra. And behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a believing Jewish woman and a Greek father,
2 who was well spoken of by the brothers in Lystra and Iconium.
3 Paul wanted this one to go forth with him, and having taken him, he circumcised him on account of the Jews being in those parts; for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
4 And while they were passing through the cities, they were delivering to them to keep the decrees decided on by the apostles and elders who were in Jerusalem.
5 So indeed the churches were strengthened in the faith and were increasing in number every day.
6 And having passed through Phrygia and the Galatian region, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia,
7 and having come down to Mysia, they were attempting to go into Bithynia, and the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them.
8 And having passed by Mysia, they came down to Troas.
9 And a vision appeared to Paul during the night: A certain man of Macedonia was standing and beseeching him and saying, “Having passed over into Macedonia, help us.”
10 Now when he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go forth to Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.
11 And having sailed from Troas, we made a straight course to Samothrace, and on the following day to Neapolis,
12 and from there to Philippi, which is the leading city of the district of Macedonia, a colony. Now we were staying some days in this city.
13 And on the day of the Sabbaths, we went forth outside the city gate, by a river, where there was customary to be a place of prayer. And having sat down, we began speaking to the women having gathered.
14 And a certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple of the city of Thyatira, worshiping God, was listening. The Lord opened her heart to attend to the things being spoken by Paul.
15 And when she was baptized, and her house, she begged, saying, “If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, having entered into my house, abide.” And she persuaded us.
16 Now it happened of us going to the place of prayer, a certain girl, having a spirit of Python, met us, who was bringing her masters much gain by fortune-telling.
17 Having followed Paul and us, she was crying out, saying, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to you the way of salvation.”
18 And she continued this for many days. And Paul having been distressed and having turned, said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out from her.” And it came out that hour.
19 Now her masters having seen that their hope of profit was gone, having taken hold of Paul and Silas, dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers.
20 And having brought them up to the magistrates, they said, “These men, being Jews, exceedingly trouble our city
21 and preach customs that it is not lawful for us, being Romans, to accept nor to practice.”
22 And the crowd rose up together against them, and the magistrates having torn off their garments, were commanding that they be beaten with rods.
23 And having laid many blows on them, they cast them into prison, having charged the jailer to keep them securely,
24 who having received such an order, threw them into the inner prison and fastened their feet in the stocks.
25 Now toward midnight, Paul and Silas praying, were singing praises to God. And the prisoners were listening to them.
26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that foundations of the prison house were shaken, and immediately all the doors were opened, and the chains of all were loosed.
27 And the jailer having been awoken and having seen the doors of the prison open, having drawn his sword was about to kill himself, supposing the prisoners to have escaped.
28 But Paul called out in a loud voice saying, “Do not harm yourself, for we are all here!”
29 And having called for lights, he rushed in, and having become terrified, he fell down before Paul and Silas.
30 And having brought them out, he was saying, “Sirs, what is necessary of me to do, that I may be saved?”
31 And they said, “Believe on the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, you and your household.”
32 And they spoke the word of the Lord to him along with all those in his house.
33 And having taken them in that hour of the night, he washed them from the wounds, and immediately he was baptized, and all his household.
34 And having brought them into the house, he laid a table for them and rejoiced with all his household, having believed in God.
35 And day having come, the magistrates sent the officers, saying, “Release those men.”
36 And the jailer reported these words to Paul: “The captains have sent that you may be let go. Now therefore having gone out, depart in peace.”
37 But Paul was saying to them, “Having beaten us publicly, uncondemned men being Romans, they cast us into prison, and now do they throw us out secretly? No indeed! Instead, having come themselves, let them bring us out.”
38 And the officers reported these words to the captains, and they were afraid, having heard that they are Romans.
39 And having come, they appealed to them, and having brought them out, they were asking them to go out of the city.
40 And having gone forth out of the prison, they came to Lydia, and having seen them, they exhorted the brothers and departed.
Luke 16:13
13 No servant is able to serve two masters. For either he will hate the one and he will love the other, or he will be devoted to one and he will despise the other. You are not able to serve God and mammon.”
