Monday: Between Christians and Unbelievers
We come now to a little portion of 2 Corinthians where Paul, as it were, breaks away from what he has been saying to deal with what was evidently the problem of separation. Then, as now, the issue of separation was a very great problem. In fact, there have been more divisions in the church over this problem than perhaps anything else. Some people have made a career of it. Some whole denominations are based upon the principle of separation. Quoting from the Old Testament, what does Paul mean when he writes in 2 Corinthians 6:17, “Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord”?
