2 Corinthians Chapter 6 (NASB)
undefined
And working together [with Him], we also urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain--
undefined
for He says, 'AT THE ACCEPTABLE TIME I LISTENED TO YOU, AND ON THE DAY OF SALVATION I HELPED YOU.' Behold, now is 'THE ACCEPTABLE TIME,' behold, now is 'THE DAY OF SALVATION '--
undefined
giving no cause for offense in anything, so that the ministry will not be discredited,
undefined
but in everything commending ourselves as servants of God, in much endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses,
undefined
in beatings, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in hunger,
undefined
in purity, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in genuine love,
undefined
in the word of truth, in the power of God; by the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and the left,
undefined
by glory and dishonor, by evil report and good report; [regarded] as deceivers and yet true;
undefined
as unknown yet well-known, as dying yet behold, we live; as punished yet not put to death,
undefined
as sorrowful yet always rejoicing, as poor yet making many rich, as having nothing yet possessing all things.
undefined
Our mouth has spoken freely to you, O Corinthians, our heart is opened wide.
undefined
You are not restrained by us, but you are restrained in your own affections.
undefined
Now in a like exchange-- I speak as to children-- open wide [to us] also.
undefined
Do not be bound together with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness?
undefined
Or what harmony has Christ with Belial, or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever?
undefined
Or what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said, 'I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM; AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.
undefined
'Therefore, COME OUT FROM THEIR MIDST AND BE SEPARATE,' says the Lord. 'AND DO NOT TOUCH WHAT IS UNCLEAN; And 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.
