TEXT: 2 CORINTHIANS 6:14-18 (AMPLIFIED VERSION): (14): "DO NOT BE UNEQUALLY YOKED WITH UNBELIEVERS [DO NOT MAKE MISMATED ALLIANCES WITH THEM OR COME UNDER A DIFFERENT YOKE WITH THEM, INCONSISTENT WITH YOUR FAITH]. FOR WHAT PARTNERSHIP HAVE WITH RIGHT LIVING AND RIGHT STANDING WITH GOD WITH INIQUITY AND LAWLESSNESS? OR HOW CAN LIGHT FELLOWSHIP WITH DARKNESS? (15): WHAT HARMONY CAN THERE BE BETWEEN CHRIST AND BELIAL [THE DEVIL]? OR WHAT HAS A BELIEVER IN COMMON WITH AN UNBELIEVER? (16): WHAT AGREEMENT [CAN THERE BE BETWEEN] A TEMPLE OF GOD AND IDOLS? FOR WE ARE THE TEMPLE OF THE LIVING GOD; EVEN AS GOD SAID, I WILL DWELL IN AND WITH AND AMONG THEM AND WILL WALK IN AND WITH AND AMONG THEM, AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE. (17): SO, COME OUT FROM AMONG [UNBELIEVERS], AND SEPARATE (SEVER) YOURSELVES FROM THEM, SAYS THE LORD, AND TOUCH NOT [ANY] UNCLEAN THING; THEN I WILL RECEIVE YOU KINDLY AND TREAT YOU WITH FAVOR, (18): AND I WILL BE A FATHER TO YOU, AND YOU SHALL BE MY SONS AND DAUGHTERS, SAYS THE LORD ALMIGHTY." 2-FOLD MINISTRY: 1.
