Will I need to make new friends? Do I need to find a real Bible-believing church?
The Bible says, “Don’t be Fooled! Evil companionships corrupt good morals.” Apostle Paul, 1 Corinthians 15:33
You will need to make new friends that believe in Jesus and live good lifestyles.
The best opportunity to make friends is at a good, Bible-centered church. There are good churches and bad churches. Many modern churches do not teach moral living.
There are a few Bible-believing churches that teach the truth about good morals and biblical conduct. Find a good church and make lasting friends who will love and support you through good times and hard times.
True Christians will be your friends even when times become difficult.
The Bible says, “One [the person] who walks with wise men grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm. King Solomon Proverbs 13:20
What does this Bible verse mean?
If you hang around with fools, you will also be a fool, and your life will be a mess. Friends influence each other. Acquaint yourself with good Christian people so that you can be mutually helpful in leading moral lives.
You cannot get along well with a sinful person unless you are one yourself. So, leave all those who influence you to do sinful acts. Find new friends who are dedicated to following Christ. A good, Bible-believing church is your best chance to find great friends.
The following verse in the Bible means that after you have committed to living your life to follow Christ, you should be careful not to bind or attach yourself to unbelievers. This applies to business and your personal life.
The Bible says, “Do not be unequally bound together with unbelievers, for what fellowship has righteousness and iniquity [evil deeds]? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?” Paul the Apostle, 2 Corinthians 6:14
