And Jesus always led others towards God through teaching repentance. That's the biggest thing. And our love for others should be an invitation for them to experience God.

If you're called to assist them and navigate them into a flourishing life with God, if God has given you that responsibility to lead your friends and to be the black sheep, I guess, of the group and stand out and make a point and advocate for righteousness, like God does call us to be that person for our friends.

It's just knowing the difference between yoking to those friendships, but then also creating a healthy balance to where you're not falling into those same tendencies, but you're still somewhat associated or you're somewhat in relation with them to where you're able to speak into them. And there's some sort of equity to where you could pour into them and give them new hope in life. Amen.

And so when we talk about friends we have to drop, it's the opposite of the friends we have to keep. So the friends you should keep are friends who obviously lead you to Christ and friends that you're equally yoked with. But then friends that you should probably drop are friends who lead you away from Christ and friends you're not equally yoked with.

And I think we could be revealed with a whole bunch of different behaviors that the Bible points out to stray away from. And even when you are Christian and you have other Christian friends, you still can be unequally yoked. Just because that person is a Christian does not mean that you're yoked with them. I can't tell you how many times where I had Christian friends say,

And we were not on the same page. And God told me to step back and to not be deeply invested. I've actually lost a few relationships because I could no longer trust them with that deep intimacy because they were doing things that were not on the same level. And we were unequally yoked in areas or beliefs or the way that we lived our lives, et cetera. It could be a multitude of things.

And God had called me higher. And that person did not want to move with me just like an oxen and move forward, but instead stay back and stay where they were at. And that's essentially what unequally yoked was, was that God was calling both of these oxen to move forward, but one of them didn't want to. And that's who you got to let go of is God.

Someone who's unwilling, someone who's unwilling to do the things of God. If God has caused you to grace them, then show them grace. But it comes to a point to where if God is flat out like, hey, you need to leave, you got to listen to the voice of God. But how do you know that? What are behaviors to avoid?

I think one of them is when the other person practices things far away from your lifestyle in Jesus. 1 Corinthians 15, 33 says, "'Do not be misled. "'Bad company corrupts good character.'" So if you have friends who are still in the world and they're still loving the world and lovers of the world, and that's just not your lifestyle and you found a new one in Jesus Christ.

The Bible shows us not to be associated with our good character with their bad company. Again, there's times where God may use you to minister to them and he's going to give you an opportunity to do so, but it's not associating yourself with their bad company.
