2 Corinthians 6:14-7:1

Common English Bible

¹⁴ Don’t be tied up as equal partners with people who don’t believe. What does righteousness share with that which is outside the Law? What relationship does light have with darkness? ¹⁵ What harmony does Christ have with Satan?^[a] What does a believer have in common with someone who doesn’t believe? ¹⁶ What agreement can there be between God’s temple and idols? Because we are the temple of the living God. Just as God said, I live with them, and I will move among them. I will be their God, and they will be my people.^{[b] 17} Therefore, come out from among them and be separated, says the Lord. Don’t touch what is unclean. Then I will welcome you.^{[c] 18} I will be a father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.^[d] 7 ¹ My dear friends, since we have these promises, let’s cleanse ourselves from anything that contaminates our body or spirit so that we make our holiness complete in the fear of God.
