It is essential that Christians live a separated and clean life. Once a man is saved, it is important for him to stay away from the wrong kind of friends and places. Although we want to win our friends to Christ, we cannot afford to harm our testimony by taking part in things that are not right. This matter of separation will either make you into a fine, holy Christian, or cause you to satisfy self and Satan and compromise your life before the world.
