Thus, even where no incestuous relationships are involved, Christians do not want to act with total disregard for established customs or the legitimate sensibilities of the community, so as not to bring reproach on the Christian congregation or on God’s name. — 2 Corinthians 6: 3.
Tāpēc pat tad, ja kristietis nebūtu vainojams incestā, viņš nerīkosies, ignorējot vispāratzītus paradumus un sabiedrības reakciju, jo tas varētu sagādāt negodu kristiešu draudzei vai Dieva vārdam.
