2 Corinthians 7:1

SELF-PURIFICATION THEIR DUTY RESULTING FROM THE FOREGOING. HIS LOVE TO THEM, AND JOY AT THE GOOD EFFECTS ON THEM OF HIS FORMER EPISTLE, AS REPORTED BY TITUS. (2Co. 7:1-16)

cleanse ourselves—This is the conclusion of the exhortation (II Corinthians 6:1, II Corinthians 6:14; I John 3:3; Revelation 22:11).

filthiness—"the unclean thing" (II Corinthians 6:17).

of the flesh—for instance, fornication, prevalent at Corinth (I Corinthians 6:15-18).

and spirit—for instance, idolatry, direct or indirect (I Corinthians 6:9; I Corinthians 8:1, I Corinthians 8:7; I Corinthians 10:7, I Corinthians 10:21-22). The spirit (Psalms 32:2) receives pollution through the flesh, the instrument of uncleanness.

perfecting holiness—The cleansing away impurity is a positive step towards holiness (II Corinthians 6:17). It is not enough to begin; the end crowns the work (Galatians 3:3; Galatians 5:7; Philippians 1:6).

fear of God—often conjoined with the consideration of the most glorious promises (II Corinthians 5:11; Hebrews 4:1). Privilege and promise go hand in hand.
