Some Christian pastors say, not just with regards to marriage, but also with friendships and the kind of people you associate with, to not hang out with sinners-and to be yoked with Christians.
Two questions I have.
Jesus didnt avoid even sinners caught up in sinful lifestyles. I dont think Christians should shun people, but at what point does associating yourself with a person who practices sin become unequally yoked"?
At what point does having a non christian friend cross the line into being unequally yoked?
I'd just like to point out two things to consider:
1. Jesus was filled with God's Holy Spirit while here on earth in human form, therefore, making it nearly impossible to be beguiled into sinning.
2. We are not playing on a level playing field. A rotten apple will corrupt an entire bushel of apples, one by one. But a nice ripe, juicy apple will never make a bushel full of rotten apples ready to eat.
