This is still a very early look into the unfinished text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

Don’t be teamed with unbelievers

6:14 Don’t be teamed with unbelievers

14Don’t be teamed together with unbelievers, because how can there be a partnership between obeying and disobeying God, or in other words, how can light socialise with darkness? 15So what harmony can Messiah have with Satan, or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? 16[ref]What agreement can God’s temple have with idols, because we are the temple of the living God? As God said,

‘I will live with them

and I will walk among them.

I will be their God

and they will be my people.’

17[ref]Therefore the master says,

‘Come out from among them and be separate.

Touch nothing that’s ceremonially prohibited

and then I will accept you.

18[ref]I will be a Father for you,

and you will be my sons and daughters,’

says the all-powerful master.

7Dear brothers and sisters, because we have those promises we should avoid doing anything that would defile our bodies or our spirits, thus staying pure due to our respect for God.
