Come Out!

 

Our assignment is clear according to 2 Cor 6:17.
“Come out from them and be separate.”
“Touch no unclean thing.”

His promise, when we do, is also clear.
“And then {He} will receive you.”

The time has never been more critical.
To separate from the world.
To be different from the ones who love the world.

Because James is pretty straightforward in his words, “friendship with the world makes you an enemy of God.”  (James 4:4)

It was James who also echoed his brother, Paul, in the faith, “Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world.”  (James 4:8)

We must remain clean.
Especially in this season.  
We are not people of God… we are not belonging to Him… if we cannot learn to rise above, to be set apart, and keep clean from all filthiness that seeks to defect our very souls; all the while damaging our witness, and destroying our effectiveness.

Come out from the rest of them.
Live like you have been redeemed.
Touch no unclean thing.

And then… He will receive you as His.
