God calls Believers to be separate and holy. We cannot be aligned with unbelievers in marriage, business, or lifestyle. Our lives should be so vastly different from unbelievers that deep fellowship with them should be awkward at best. Consider these contrasts made in scripture:
2 Cor. 6:14-17 “Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers:
1. Godliness & the flesh
“for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness?”
2. Truth & error
“and what communion hath light with darkness?”
3. Jesus & Satan
“And what concord hath Christ with Belial?”
4. Believers & the lost
”or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?”
6. God & the world
“And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?”
LESSON - If as a Believer you are filled with the Holy Spirit, you will be compelled to live a separated life. You will not be able to enjoy the things of Satan and this world while experiencing fellowship with God and His Holy Spirit. The call here is clear! Come out from the world and be separate. Live a godly, holy life as Christ did.
“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,”
