Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,
but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.
-- Psalm 1
My daughter, do not mince words. For my warnings are life to those who heed them.
The lukewarm and compromised Christians that do not come out of the world suffer death by association. A slow spiritual death will lead many into a swift physical death, as I continue to pour out my judgment. I ate with sinners, tax collectors and drunkards in order to reveal myself to them and to tell them to repent and believe in me. Yet, people who call themselves mine, are eating at tables without any purpose except the pleasures of the flesh. The vanity and pride of life. There is no time under heaven for such relationships, nor has there ever been.
Tell the people: Come out from unequal yoking with unbelievers. From those who are not bearing fruit, worthy of repentance. The rocks that cry out from the earth are a better witness for me than those who pretend in their hearts to be lights in the darkness that they imbibe with. The good news is not about merely rubbing shoulders with the darkness.
If you are not ministering my word to the lost, then come away from them. How can you be so hateful to laugh and cavort with those whose souls are perishing, without a warning? How can you hate those I love, so much, as to sit across from them and smile without pleading for their repentance? Where are your tears before my throne, on behalf of those you think you love? What pride you have to hope the presence of your disobedience will win souls. I have called you to love your enemies and instead, you hate those you call your friends by withholding from them the truth of salvation. Those who are ashamed to confess my name before others, I will be ashamed to confess before my Father in heaven.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. If you are ministering to the lost and they receive my word and my peace rests upon them, then continue to minister in love. Bring them into the sheepfold and fellowship with them as brothers. But if they have rejected my word, my peace will depart. Wipe the dust from your feet and move on to the next. Love does not keep company with evildoers and idolaters. Mind my precepts and come out of your continual defilement at the tables of the ungodly and the tables of those who have a form of godliness but who deny my power. Those who are friends with the world are at enmity with me. Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
My people, stop grieving and lamenting the rejection orchestrated by my word from the ungodly and rejoice. Mourn for their sins and not for yourselves. For you are a holy and chosen generation, a royal priesthood who has been called out of darkness to proclaim the goodness of the Messiah who has called you into my marvelous light.
1 Corinthians 6: 14-18
Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what [d]fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever? 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.”
Therefore,
“Come out from among them
And be separate, says the Lord.
Do not touch what is unclean,
And I will receive you.”
“I will be a Father to you,
And you shall be My sons and daughters,
Says the Lord.
