YOU CAN KNOW THE WILL OF GOD: In the Book of Second Corinthians and chapter 6 we find at verse 17 these words: "Therefore come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing and I will receive you." [NIV]. This whole section harkens back to the ancient Jews and the Lord taking them into the promised land as His special people. The context of this passage is that the New Testament believer is not to be yoked together with unbelievers in their practices. We are to be separate from the worldly things and activities that would defile us as God's children. Think it through and you will discover that the concept is not difficult. This is the will of God for you.
