RELATIONSHIPS

As God's fellow workers we urge you not to receive God's grace in vain.

For he says, "In the time of my favor I heard you,
and in the day of salvation I helped you."
I tell you, now is the time of God's favor,
now is the day of salvation.

Do not be yoked together with unbelievers.
For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common?
Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?

What harmony is there between Christ and Belial?
What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?

What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols?
For we are the temple of the living God.
As God has said: "I will live with them and walk among them,
and I will be their God, and they will be my people."

Since we have these promises, dear friends,
let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit,
perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.

Godly sorrow brings repentance
that leads to salvation and leaves no regret,
but worldly sorrow brings death.

(2 Corinthians 6:1,2,14-16; 7:1,10;
All scripture taken from New International Version.)

Do YOUR relationships show YOUR reverence for God?
