Be careful of your associations
if we pay attention to the condition of young Christians today. One of the factors that caused them to fall and leave their faith was simply because they chose the wrong friends to hang out with. Associating with anyone there is no prohibition just be careful with your association. Nowadays, if we investigate, there are some young Christians who leave God because of their life partner.
There are even those who are addicted to drugs, addicted to drinking, addicted to cigarettes, addicted to playing women, stealing and others. Caused by bad associations that destroy the good things in one's life.
God's Word confirms 1 Corinthians 15:33 regarding association, it turns out that the Bible says that bad association destroys good things in a person.
If we pay attention to the context, this speaks of a rebuke of God's word that was delivered to the Corinthian church at that time. So that they are careful with their association. Because at that time there were some groups who did not believe in the resurrection. This understanding spread to the Christians in the city of Corinth. Because the conditions at that time were serious, Paul reminded them to be careful with their association.
Likewise with us today as children of God who have understood a truth. To be careful with your association. But for us as young people we should be examples and role models. As Paul said to Timothy at the time so he could be an example (1 Timothy 4:12).
Don't be influenced by today's conditions, it's up to them to tell you; you are not cool and not brave. The important thing is that God is pleased with your life. It is better to be hated by humans than to be hated by God because of your association.
It all depends on your decision whether you want to change or not. The choice is in the hands of friends, brothers themselves who determine your future life. Remember life is only once, not twice. Use the available time, because that time never comes back always passes. Amen.
