God has always wanted the best for people. The document discusses how God provided a perfect home for Adam and Eve, Noah preached for years to save people, and Moses rescued the Israelites while giving Pharaoh a chance to change. It warns against being unequally yoked with unbelievers, as righteousness has nothing in common with lawlessness. God wants his people to associate and marry within his people. The document also discusses how the word "Belial" referred to worthless ruin in the Old Testament, and quotes scripture saying idols have no agreement with God's temple, as his people are the temple of the living God.

4. The Yoke of an Unbeliever
“Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers.
For what partnership has righteousness with
lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with
darkness?”
(2 Corinthians 6.14; ESV)

5. The Yoke of an Unbeliever
• God has always wanted his people to associated and
marry his people.
– Deuteronomy 7.3; Joshua 23.12; Ezra 9.2; Nehemiah 13.25

worship truthfully the one God?

(Deuteronomy 13.13; Judges 19.22; 20.13; 1 Kings
21.10, 13; 2 Chronicles 13.7)
– The word originally meant worthless or hopeless ruin.

7. The Temple of the Lord
“What agreement has the temple of God with idols?
For we are the temple of the living God; as God said, "I
will make my dwelling among them and walk among
them, and I will be their God, and they shall be my
people.”
(2 Corinthians 6.16; ESV)
