2Co 7:1 ¶ Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
Paul says that in light of these promises "we are to cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God". What promises? Chapter 6 has the answer.
Here is the promise: "I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people."
"Come out from among them And be separate, says the Lord. Do not touch what is unclean, And I will receive you."
"I will be a Father to you, And you shall be My sons and daughters, Says the LORD Almighty."
