The Tragedy of an Unclean Christian
Adrian Rogers
II Corinthians 6:14-18; Numbers 19; Hebrews 9:14
I want you to take your Bibles tonight as we prepare our hearts for our Lord's Supper communion, and look with me at three separate passages of scripture that are linked together by the Holy Spirit and divine inspiration.

"Touch not the unclean thing, and I will receive you and will be a Father unto you and ye shall be my sons and daughters saith the Lord Almighty." Verse seventeen gives us this injunction, "Touch not the unclean thing." Now what is He talking about. Turn backward in your Bible please to Numbers chapter ninet ...
