The Preacher’s Corner

Unequally Yoked!


Listen Later

First day back from being ill and it's been difficult! When much younger  I could bounce back from thing like this and in a couple days be right  as rain, but no longer! It takes time as I have discovered!  Nevertheless, today we dive into 2 Corinthians chapter 6 and discover 3  key principles to this chapter. 1) VANITY - Paul's worst fear for any  people he works with is they received not the grace of God in vain! Many  begin their journey well enough, looking for answers and not finding a  satisfaction in the World's answers so they give the church a listen.  For a time they come rejoicing in that which is new, till it becomes  common place to them once more. After this time God's message and house  become vain once more and they begin to fall away! This is the broken  heart of Paul!!! 2) SELF RESTRICTION - Its those pesky affections which  often keep us back from serving God! We may be veteran believers on  course of keeping up pretenses for the sake of the congregation, but our  affections often side-line us from being true to the work of God! We  limit those things of God from being accomplished in our lives because  of the many "affections" we have! 3) UNEQUALLY YOKED - This is a chain  of reasoning section to this chapter. If God's grace is made vain in  your heart because you've placed restrictions on your affections toward  the things of God, then you're not going to be yoked up properly and can  easily fall away! You've got to pay attention to your Christian walk!  You cannot serve God and Mammon! If you've fallen away, you must return  and repent!!! Now is the accepted time; Now is the day of salvation!
