What is Separation?

Consecration – Exodus 13:1-2

The Lord said to Moses,   “Consecrate to me every firstborn male.  The first offspring of every womb among the Israelites belongs to me, whether human or animal.”

Distinguish – Exodus 33:16

How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us?  What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?”

Not Associating – Joshua 23:7

Do not associate with these nations that remain among you; do not invoke the names of their gods or swear  by them. You must not serve them or bow down  to them.

Noto To Be Yoked – 2  Corinthians 6:14

Do not be yoked together  with unbelievers.  For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?

Not To Make Treaty – Deuteronomy 7:2

and when the Lord your God has delivered  them over to you and you have defeated them, then you must destroy  them totally.  Make no treaty  with them, and show them no mercy.

Sanctified – John 17:17

Sanctify them by the truth; your word is truth.

To Be Holy -  Deuteronomy 7:6

For you are a people holy  to the Lord your God.  The Lord your God has chosen  you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.

Spiritual Thoughts 

. Idolatry is worshiping anything that ought to be used, or using anything that is meant to be worshiped. - Augustine

. Preach to the suffering, and you will never lack a congregation.  There is a broken heart in every pew. - Joseph Parker
