To the faithful in Christ Jesus,

Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

In your journey through the Scriptures, you have sought understanding of my words to the 2 Corinthians chapter 6, verses 1 to 18. Let us delve into these verses with a heart seeking wisdom.

"We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain." In this exhortation, I urge you not to receive the immeasurable grace of God without effect. The grace bestowed upon us should bear fruit in our lives, manifesting in godly living and earnest service.

"(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)" Here, I remind you of the immediacy and urgency of God's salvation. Now is the opportune time to respond to His call.

"Giving no offence in any thing, that the ministry be not blamed." We, as servants of Christ, must conduct ourselves in a manner that brings no reproach upon the ministry. Our actions should reflect the holiness and love of our Lord.

"But in all things approving ourselves as the ministers of God." In every circumstance, whether in tribulations, necessities, or distresses, we are to demonstrate the character and perseverance that befits ministers of God.

"O ye Corinthians, our mouth is open unto you, our heart is enlarged." I speak to you with openness and great affection, desiring nothing more than your spiritual growth and well-being.

"Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers." This is a warning against forming binding relationships with unbelievers that could lead you away from the path of righteousness. Such partnerships can hinder your spiritual progress and compromise your commitment to Christ.

"For what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion hath light with darkness?" These rhetorical questions emphasize the incompatibility between the life of a believer and the ways of the world.

"And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols?" As the temple of the living God, you are called to be separate from idolatry and all forms of pagan practices. Your lives should be a testament to the holiness and purity of God.

"Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you." This call to separation is not for isolation but for purification, that you may be a holy people unto the Lord.

"And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty." In embracing this call, you become part of the divine family, enjoying the intimate relationship and privileges of being God's children.

Let these words, dear brethren, guide you in your walk with the Lord. Embrace the grace of God, live as His faithful ministers, and separate yourselves unto holiness, that you may fully experience His fatherly love and care.

May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.

Apostle Paul
