First letter to the Thessalonians 4:3

[The following passage deals with sanctification, and the Greek word hagiasmos is used three times. It frames the passage in verses 3 and 7, and is also found centrally in verse 4.]
This is God's will – your sanctification (that you be set apart, living pure and holy lives):
That you abstain from sexual immorality.
[The Greek word porneia is used here, and the root word means "to sell oneself into slavery." Pornography is a compound word made up of this very word porneia and grafo, which means "something written or drawn." Pornography is a description, either in text or graphically, of someone selling themselves sexually.]
