1 Thessalonians 4:6 in Context — 1 Thessalonians 4

4 c’est que chacun de vous sache posséder son corps dans la sainteté et l’honnêteté,

5 sans vous livrer à une convoitise passionnée, comme font les païens qui ne connaissent pas Dieu;

6 c’est que personne n’use envers son frère de fraude et de cupidité dans les affaires, parce que le Seigneur tire vengeance de toutes ces choses, comme nous vous l’avons déjà dit et attesté.

7 Car Dieu ne nous a pas appelés à l’impureté, mais à la sanctification.

8 Celui donc qui rejette ces préceptes ne rejette pas un homme, mais Dieu, qui vous a aussi donné son Saint-Esprit.
