Be not unequally yoked
SonLight Daily Devotional Daily Devotional for May 6

2 Corinthians 6:14-16 "Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness? and what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? and what agreement hath the Temple of God with idols? For you are the temple of the Living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people."

The unsaved; do not go out with them, do not marry them. This sounds like a very hard saying in a Bible that teaches us to love one another. The unsaved will lead a believer away from Church, and then away from God. The unsaved may even go to Church for awhile, but after time they will turn away, making it very hard for the believer to go to Church. The unsaved will say, "You do not have to go to Church" to believers. The disobedient so-called Christian may even say the very same thing.

Hebrews 10:25 "Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as you see the day approaching."

People that do not go to Church do not believe this Book! The Book says "Be not unequally yoked", and that's what it means. Not in business, not in friendships, not in marriage, not in the workplace.

You can talk with the unsaved for one purpose: that is to share the love of Christ Jesus. You can be friendly to them at the workplace as you try to show them Christ Jesus in you. You can pray that Christ Jesus will save them.
