6:1  And working together with Him, we also urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain--
6:2  for He says, "AT THE ACCEPTABLE TIME I LISTENED TO YOU, AND ON THE DAY OF SALVATION I HELPED YOU." Behold, now is "THE ACCEPTABLE TIME," behold, now is "THE DAY OF SALVATION "--
6:3  giving no cause for offense in anything, so that the ministry will not be discredited,
6:4  but in everything commending ourselves as servants of God, in much endurance, in afflictions, in hardships, in distresses,
6:5  in beatings, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labors, in sleeplessness, in hunger,
6:6  in purity, in knowledge, in patience, in kindness, in the Holy Spirit, in genuine love,
6:7  in the word of truth, in the power of God; by the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and the left,
6:8  by glory and dishonor, by evil report and good report; regarded as deceivers and yet true;
6:9  as unknown yet well-known, as dying yet behold, we live; as punished yet not put to death,
6:10  as sorrowful yet always rejoicing, as poor yet making many rich, as having nothing yet possessing all things.
6:11  Our mouth has spoken freely to you, O Corinthians, our heart is opened wide.
6:12  You are not restrained by us, but you are restrained in your own affections.
6:13  Now in a like exchange-- I speak as to children-- open wide to us also.
6:14  Do not be bound together with unbelievers; for what partnership have righteousness and lawlessness, or what fellowship has light with darkness?
6:15  Or what harmony has Christ with Belial, or what has a believer in common with an unbeliever?
6:16  Or what agreement has the temple of God with idols? For we are the temple of the living God; just as God said, "I WILL DWELL IN THEM AND WALK AMONG THEM; AND I WILL BE THEIR GOD, AND THEY SHALL BE MY PEOPLE.
6:17  "Therefore, COME OUT FROM THEIR MIDST AND BE SEPARATE," says the Lord. "AND DO NOT TOUCH WHAT IS UNCLEAN; And I will welcome you.
6:18  "And I will be a father to you, And you shall be sons and daughters to Me," Says the Lord Almighty.
