Spurgeon's Lost Friends
Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked, or stand in the way that sinners take, or sit in the company of mockers. (Psalm 1:1)
"The Christian will be sure to make enemies.
It will be one of his objects to make none; but if to do the right, and to believe the truth, should cause him to lose every earthly friend, he will count it but a small loss, since his great Friend is in heaven.
Better a brief warfare and eternal rest, than false peace and everlasting torment". ~ Charles Spurgeon
Do not let my heart be drawn to what is evil so that I take part in wicked deeds with men who are evildoers; do not let me eat of their delicacies. (Psalm 141:4)
This choice is as clear as it is difficult - live only for the applause of One.
A righteous man is cautious in friendship. (Proverbs 12:26a)
