Deeper Christian Life Ministry The Netherlands SUMMARY (1) In our last study, we learned

Deeper Christian Life Ministry The Netherlands SUMMARY (1) In our last study, we learned the following lessons: • • • Sin attracts God’s judgement; God is merciful and forgives the penitent. War is no alternative to resolving conflicts in a peaceful manner. We must avoid presumption and overconfidence in our walk with God. Our decisions and actions should not be based on God’s permissive will. We must ask for God’s clear direction in carrying out His assignment. The study of today touches on four points: • • Command to separate from the world. Causes of the unequal yoke. Consequences of unequal yoke Call to separation and restoration. …earnestly contend for the FAITH which was once delivered unto the SAINTS (Jude 3)

Deeper Christian Life Ministry The Netherlands SUMMARY (2) • Command to separate from the world (2 Corinthians 6: 14): • Alignment between a believer and an unbeliever in marriage, business, worship, etc. is unequal yoke. God forbids it because it causes backsliding or compromise in faith. • Causes of the unequal yoke (2 Corinthians 6: 15, 16): • Excessive love for man or material, impatience, wilful disobedience, worldliness, carnality, covetousness and ignorance are some causes of the unequal yoke. • Consequences of the unequal yoke (2 Corinthians 6: 17, 18): • Unequal yoke leads to compromise and loss of fellowship with God and His favour. • It can lead to personal suffering, loss of property, loss of fortunes and even death. • Call to separation and restoration (2 Corinthians 6: 17, 18): • All believers are commanded to come out of the world and its ungodly ties. …earnestly contend for the FAITH which was once delivered unto the SAINTS (Jude 3)

It leads to backsliding. • To avoid the unequal yoke, believers should avoid excessive love for man or material, affection, impatience, wilful disobedience and covetousness. • Believers should not isolate themselves from unbeliever whom they are supposed to win: separation is not isolation. • Response to God’s call through repentance and faith brings restoration to favour and fellowship with God. …earnestly contend for the FAITH which was once delivered unto the SAINTS (Jude 3)
