2 Corinthians Chapter 6 (ESV)
undefined
Working together with him, then, we appeal to you not to receive the grace of God in vain.
undefined
For he says, “In a favorable time I listened to you, and in a day of salvation I have helped you.” Behold, now is the favorable time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
undefined
We put no obstacle in anyone's way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry,
undefined
but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: by great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities,
undefined
beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger;
undefined
by purity, knowledge, patience, kindness, the Holy Spirit, genuine love;
undefined
by truthful speech, and the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and for the left;
undefined
through honor and dishonor, through slander and praise. We are treated as impostors, and yet are true;
undefined
as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as punished, and yet not killed;
undefined
as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing everything.
undefined
We have spoken freely to you, Corinthians; our heart is wide open.
undefined
You are not restricted by us, but you are restricted in your own affections.
undefined
In return (I speak as to children) widen your hearts also.
undefined
Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?
undefined
What accord has Christ with Belial? Or what portion does a believer share with an unbeliever?
undefined
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.
undefined
Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord, and touch no unclean thing; then I will welcome you,
undefined
and I will be a father to you, and you shall be sons and daughters to me, says the Lord Almighty.”
