Preserve your purity and resist contamination
Do not make the mistake of imagining that the body has been given for enjoyment, comfort seeking, beautification, and useless pursuits of that nature. Indulgence in pleasure seeking, comfort, and luxury can be dangerous. In one of the wars between Germany and France, France suffered a crushing defeat. Reflecting on this, the then French Commander-in-Chief said, "We lost not because we lacked courage but because we had become soft by getting drowned in pleasure-seeking." You can ruin yourself by pandering to the senses. What does one gain from sensual pleasures? Nothing, because these pleasures are all momentary. God has not given this body for indulgence.
