I've got to preach on Sunday on 2 Corinthians 6:14-7:1 a passage that is well known, DO NOT BE YOKED WITH UNBELIEVERS, but i've found often misaplied!
It turns out in all my reading of commentaries, dictionaries and of the whole of 2 Corinthians, that this passage has little to do with whether or not you date a non christian (not that I think that is a good idea, i just don't think that is the primary point of this scripture!) It would seem that what this scripture is talking about is more concerned with false teaching and being led astray by people who claim to be talking about Jesus but who are actually speaking lies.
Anyway, i haven't quite finished it yet, but when i do maybe i'll post some of it! Won't that be exciting!!
