Lust and Licentiousness

Sin does not reign in our mortal bodies; we do not obey it in its lust.

"Lust" is a strong desire. Regarding sin, it is a strong desire to do something sinful.

Those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare. They fall into harmful lusts.

Mk. 7:20-23

Licentiousness is an evil that comes from within man.

"Licentiousness" is excess, absence of restraint, indecency, and wantonness.


2 Cor. 12:20-21


Licentiousness (i.e., lewdness, sensuality) is a sin mentioned with uncleanness and fornication.

When we sin, we have given ourselves over to licentiousness by no longer restraining ourselves.


2 Tim. 3:6-7


Satan leads away gullible women by various lusts.

False teachers lead Christians into sin through fleshly lusts.


2 Tim. 2:22

Christians must flee lusts, by pursuing righteousness, faith, love, and peace (cf. Jas. 4:7-10; 1 Pet. 5:8-9).
