EVIL COMPANY CORRUPTS GOOD HABITS/ MANNERS

Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits.” (1
Corinthians 15:33)

Hanging out with the wrong crowd negatively impacts on a
person’s character. That’s the reason the Bible admonishes us not to keep
company with the wrong friends, especially non-Christians. Definitely, such
friends may want to pressurize us to do the things we used to do before we
received salvation in Christ Jesus.

As one who is born again, you must get away from so-called
friends who are capable of exerting negative influences on you. The Bible says “Be
ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers…..” (2 Corinthians 6:14). That
doesn’t mean they have become your enemies, for you ought to still reach them
the gospel of Jesus Christ. But the point is they shouldn’t be your close
companions in life; you shouldn’t be hobnobbing with them anymore.
