“(Matthew 10:28 NKJV) And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. When we fear God we do not fear anyone or anything else. (2 Corinthians 6:17-18 NKJV) Therefore Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you. {18} I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the LORD Almighty. (2 Corinthians 7:1 NKJV) Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.”
