💭
Do you not have someone you want to protect?
A daughter, a son, or a loved one?
Protecting oneself from harm includes spiritual and moral purity of heart, not just physical well-being.
Desecrating the temple of the Holy Spirit causes more harm, not only to the victim.
Finally, protecting yourself from harm also involves guarding against harmful spiritual influences, such as sin, and anything that could lead to damnation or prevent salvation.
