ROSE AND LINDA'S JOUNAL WALKING WISE

PROVERBS 13:20  

He who walks with wise men will be wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm.   

In life we will meet many people.  In is only in getting to know people that we can decide on what level that friendship should be.  We are taught in the Bible that we are to love everyone, and we should.  We will meet people that tell of their love for Christ Jesus, but will not budge on their beliefs that are unacceptable, that the Bible clearly says are sin, or holding on to teachings or practices that do not line up with the word. 

In developing relationships we have to be careful of how close we let people into our life's.  We can pray with them and try to guide them to the truth but sometimes we have to make the decision to let go.  There are also times we know a person  for a while and are surprised to learn much later some of their beliefs.

LJG and I post the teachings of others on our sites and we have always tried to know exactly what a person's stand is on many issues.  We are aware that you our readers might read and follow some of these teachers and /or pastors.  That excites us.  We want you to learn.  

After weeks of reading the beautiful writings of one person we asked and received permission from that person to post their articles on our sites.  The very next day they posted on my site teachings that do not line up with the Word of God, which I deleted right away.  In all the time I knew this person I never knew this about them, had never saw any sign that they  believed this way.  I immediately contacted LJG and told her what I had saw.  We canceled any of this person's writings that we had planned to post.  

We want you to understand we are responsible for what we post, we have to answer to God for what we write and what others write and post on these sites.  If any one of you chooses to read someone and then begins to believe these wrong teachings, we are responsible as we lead you to this person.  

As uplifting as this person's articles are,  to walk with a fool can cause harm to us and to you.  Being Believers/Christians we will come in contact with many people in life, and we are to share the Word of the Lord with all. At the same time we are to use wisdom in all areas of our life's.

We are human, did I made a mistake, yes.  Now in wisdom LJG and I are correcting it.  God just brought to my mind, this is the very reason He has us do this.  Even we can trust someone unknowingly.  We are not perfect, we make mistakes.  We thank the Lord that He uses our mistakes to teach us to be stronger in Him.

People we have to always be on guard as to whom we listen to, the devil is not always packing a gun walking in plain sight.  He waits to see one small way to try to get into our life's.  But we will not be defeated.  

Our Lord is a Mighty God, He is worthy to be served. We will teach the truth as the Bible says, not man made traditions or beliefs. 

God's Blessing on you all
