Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? And what agreement hath the temple of GOD with idols? for ye are the temple of the living GOD; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their GOD, and they shall be My people. Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you, And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be My sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty. (2Co 6:14-18)
Those who are born again by faith in Christ and His finished and perfect work on the Cross of Calvary are to be Holy, separate, peculiar. We have been chosen, cleansed by His blood, a royal priesthood, and a new creature in Christ. Because of our relationship with the Father, through Jesus Christ, and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit, we are His children, ambassadors of the King and ministers of reconciliation. We are His temple, and the sheep of His pasture and are to live in and through Him surrendered lives, that take up our cross, and reflect our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
Whether it is in personal relationships, dating and marriage, business, and even our worship and service, we are not to stand in agreement with those who do not believe our GOD, and His Son, Jesus Christ, who is GOD in the flesh, and His Word. Whether it is another faith, or no faith at all, we are not to fellowship with them, or worship as they do, for we are not worshiping in Spirit and in Truth, for they serve other gods.
We can and must witness of Christ to those who do not know Him, and live our lives to reflect our Lord, while lifting Him up and giving Him the glory He deserves. We are to speak the Truth in love from His Word and through the guidance and promptings of the Holy Spirit to reprove, rebuke, and exhort with all long suffering and Doctrine.
We are to minister to those who are hurting, without partaking of their deeds. We are to strengthen and disciple one another to the task, while loving one another as members of His body. We are to share Christ and His Gospel at every opportunity that those who should see a difference in us, may hear and believe the Good News of Jesus Christ and have life in His Name.
For GOD is not willing that any should perish, but that all would come to repentance and the knowledge of the Truth. Jesus loves you and wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Surrender to Him on His terms and He will give you a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. GOD calls you to trust Him and what He has already done for you to pay your sIn debt. He has provided the only way of reconciliation with GOD with forgiveness and Salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of GOD who is GOD the Son, to give you a new life in Christ. Turn away from yourself and your sIn and turn to Him alone for eternal Life, now and always.
In Christ,
