Get Out and Get Away
“Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you. I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty” (2 Corinthians 6:17-18).
I do not believe that there is any doctrine more needed today in the Christian church in America than the doctrine of separation.
We have lost power because the line between the church and the world has been almost obliterated. A good many people profess Christianity, but their profession does not mean much; the result is that the world does not know what Christians really believe.
For every unconverted man that reads the Bible, a hundred read you and me; and if they see us hand-in-glove with the ungodly they are not going to have any confidence in our professions... How is it with your life? Are you hand-in-glove with the world? If you are, how can you expect God to flll you with the Holy Spirit?
I believe that the cause of Christ is suffering more from this one thing than any other ten things put together. God cannot give us power because we are allied with the ungodly. The mirth that satisfies the world will not satisfy the true child of God, and yet how many of us are just looking to the world for our pleasure. (Dwight L. Moody).
