THE PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE

PEOPLE.   The people in your life are anything but neutral.  They can be one of the most valuable spiritual assets you possess.  They can also be one of the worst curses on our lives.  God's Word puts it this way, "Bad company corrupts good character".  Translation: The people we surround ourselves with have the capacity to be toxic influences in our lives.  They have the capacity to undo what we have allowed Christ to do in our lives.  They have influence.  Like building your house in the middle of a toxic dump that has been condemned and is unbelievably dangerous and unwise, so it is when we surround ourselves with the wrong people.

But, God reminds us that we are not simply victims in this matter.  We have the capacity to remove ourselves from those who have a toxic impact on our lives and, likewise, we have the capacity, and the responsibility, to surround ourselves with the right people.

Read 1 Corinthians 15:12-34
