“There must be a divorce between you and sin, or there can be no marriage between you and Christ.”

Charles Spurgeon

Simplified Meaning:

To understand this, think about two friendships. If you want to be close friends with a good person who is kind and honest, you can't keep being friends with someone who always gets you into trouble and makes bad choices. Similarly, if you want a strong, good relationship with Christ, which means living a life of love, honesty, and doing the right thing, you can't keep doing bad things (sinning). Just like you choose good friends over bad ones, you have to choose a good, honest life to be close to Christ. For example, if someone wants to be healthy, they have to stop unhealthy habits like smoking or eating junk food; otherwise, they won't achieve their health goals. So, to live a life connected to Christ, you're advised to give up bad actions and habits.
