Be Careful of the Company You Keep

2025-07-17

Be careful of the company you keep. The scriptures called Lot righteous, but the lust of the land led him to Sodom, where the wicked “vexed his righteous soul.” He was willing to throw his daughters to the wolves. The angels had to drag him out of the city. His wife turned aside and died. And while drunk in a cave, gross wickedness occurred. Only because he wanted better land and a place of honor at the gate. The righteousness of his uncle Abraham was all but forgotten, and he, his wife, and his daughters all paid grievously so.
