DO NOT BE UNEQUALLY YOKED...
Brother James, OIC
2 Corinthians 6:14-18
14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? 15 And what accord has Christ with Belial (Belial=a demon)? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? 16 And what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For you* are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people."+ 17 Therefore "Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you."* 18 "I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the Lord Almighty."*
Am 3:3
Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?
Agreement causes peace between the parties that are in agreement. But when two cannot agree arguments and division occur. We see this constantly in the world between nations. We see this constantly with the number of people divorcing. We see this constantly in religious circles. And sadly we see it in Christianity. And it is only to Christians the opening scriptures are aiming its warnings toward.
The first agreement I had to come to in my walk as a Christian is when God the Father called me to His Son Jesus Christ. I heard the Gospel because God caused me to hear it and He gave me the measure of Faith to believe and agree with it. Then the war began against my soul to keep me from growing in this the beginning Seed of Life that Truth Births:
Jas 1:18
Of his own will begat he us(birthed us again) with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.
The war that began against me at the time of my new birth was by satan, the god of this world, to keep me away from the Truth that would cleanse me, heal me, sanctify me, renew me, provide for me, strengthen me, and empower me to become a son of God whereby I could overcome satan and place Gods enemies under my feet.
Joh 15:3
Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
2Co 4:3
But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
Mat 6:8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
1Pe 2:24
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
John 1:12
But as many as received him, to them gave he power F2 to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Php 4:13
I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me
Ro 12:2
And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Joh 17:17
Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth
2Co 4:4
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
Ga 3:1 -
O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
2Ti 4:4
And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
Ro 16:20
And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.
You see if you are following any other path or teaching or solution other than that which is accorded to you in the Rightly Divided Truth of Gods Word through Faith in Jesus Christ then you are agreeing with satan. Take time today to begin a comprehensive study of the New Testament which is Gods Gift to you and all who would receive a love for the Truth, and in it you will find the Promises that will make you a partaker of the Divine Nature if you will only agree with them!
