Unequally Yoked
14 Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness? 15 What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever? 16 What agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; as God said,
“I will make my dwelling among them and walk among them,
and I will be their God,
and they shall be my people.
17 Therefore go out from their midst,
and be separate from them, says the Lord,
and touch no unclean thing;
then I will welcome you,
18 and I will be a father to you,
and you shall be sons and daughters to me,
says the Lord Almighty.”
7 Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit, bringing holiness to completion in the fear of God.
2 Co 6:14–7:1

Unequally Yoked
The Lord chooses to unite with you. You have been transferred from darkness to light. You have been made alive though you were dead in your trespasses. Thus your God wants you to be like this in your relationships on earth, too. This the God that puts you in a Christian community. He plucks you out of unbelief and gives you faith by the work of his Spirit. He has made you a living temple and his Holy Spirit dwells in you. The gifts of God are planted in your heart. He nourishes you and keeps you in the true faith. The promises are true. Your God has done great things for you. Rejoice in the life you have in Christ.
