I don't think being equally yoked is a step. I think it is foundational. The foundation is on Jesus Christ.

2 Corinthians 6

There is no specific mention of marriage here but I agree it applies,why do we not apply this in other areas of life,friends and those we allow into our lives in the hope that we will influence them rather than them influencing us...does the Bible say that bad company creates good morals or was it the other way around ? how and why do you think that the idea of befriending the world has entered into and dominates the church today? The passage ask the question"what "fellowship" or friendship as we would say does light have with darkness ?
