2 Corinthians 6

Paul wrote that the grace of God that we have received should spur us into action rather than receiving His grace in vain. We need to speak out for God and do His will, which we cannot do if we have devoted ourselves to people who do not believe in Him.

We each have a choice to make: we can serve God or we can serve men. We cannot serve both as their wills are mutually exclusive. Any relationships that are keeping you from God need to be severed so that you are free to serve God. This may not mean that you need to completely remove a person from your life, but at the least, the nature of the relationship needs to drastically change so there is no longer a conflict.
