Just because you haven’t changed all the way doesn’t mean that you aren’t changed and that doesn’t mean you aren’t changing. You may still feel the pull of the peer pressure but all this should do is prove to you that you do need to renew your mind (Romans 12:2). You do need to cast down contrary thoughts (2 Corinthians 10:5), and think on good things (Philippians 4:8). You do need to realize that bad company corrupts good morals (1 Corinthians 15:33). You must water that seed, till that soil, and grow in the knowledge and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18).

1 Cor. 15:33 is such a good verse for the Body of Christ today.

I heard a pastor preach a message on reaching sinners by becoming their friends, and it was good, but unbalanced.
I e-mailed him, and shared this verse with him, to show him there's a balance in God's truth that we need to grasp, and communicate.
He was nice, but simply said he didn't understand all the Scripture, and he was going to serve the Lord the way he felt he should.
Amazing, I thought. The Bible is not that big of a deal.

Thanks for the post. Very good words.
