Doctrine or Love

Have you ever noticed that…

• The longer two people are married the more they begin to resemble one another?
• The longer a person spends on the mission field, the more they reflect the culture in which they minister?

Truly to spend much time with a person, a teaching, or a culture is to be moved and so changed by that person, teaching, or culture. That is why Paul warned us, “Do not be deceived: ‘Bad company corrupts good morals” (1 Corinthians 15:33). In fact, one of the dangers of false worship is that if you bow before an idol too long, you will begin to resemble that idol.

Psalm 115:8: “Those who make [an idol] will become like them, everyone who trusts in them.”
