Day 327. How should a single person keep the seventh commandment? (2025)

Today is day 327 and we are studying The Seventh Commandment.

327. How should a single person keep the seventh commandment?

Those who are single should honor as holy their own bodies and those of others by refraining from sexual acts, lewd speech, or lustful thoughts. They should nurture chaste and loyal friendships, and uphold the common life of their families, fellowships, and churches. (1 Corinthians 6:12–20; 7:6–9)

We will conclude today by praying Prayer 94.For a Virtuous Heart found on page 674 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
