Scripture - 1Cor.15:33 - 34 "Do not be misled:"Bad company corrupts good character." Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God - I say this to your shame." Paul is not writing here to unbelievers, but to the church of Coninth, to believers. He says that some are ignorant of God. Many say that they are Christians, the confess with their mouth that Jesus is the Son of God, but have no knowlege of God - they are ignorant of God. That is why so many who confess to be christians, go on living as if though they are not. When confronted, they will usualy answer with slefdefence or even with attack. A tipical answer will be;"I am a Christian, I read Bible, go to church, etc. And what I do has nothing to do with you." Does that sound familiar? If a person, who confess to be a Christian, know something about God and His love, then his life would reflect it. His life would be speaking of God's glory. It is impossible to know everything about God, or know God completely, but the more we get to know Him, the more our lives would speak of His precense in us. Blessings

God bless you as you share God's Word on Mylot. I haven't read other posts you have here but this one, i won't like to miss out. We really have to be God conscious, not self centered. And to do that, we need to know more about God. A true follower of Christ is obvious by the way they speaks, the way it shows in their life and the fruit that they bear. Press on towards the goal my brother in Christ. Be strong in the Lord Jesus Christ.
