Verse 17
Compared to the union that takes place when two people have sex, the person who trusts Christ unites with Him in an even stronger and more pervasive oneness. This is an even stronger spiritual union. Consequently it is a very serious thing to give to a prostitute what God has so strongly united to Christ.
Paul expressed his argument in a chiasm.
A Your bodies are members of Christ’s body.
B So they must not be members of a prostitute’s body.
B’ Joined to a prostitute your members become one body with her.
A’ Joined to Christ your members become one spirit with Him.
