FRIENDS, BAD
Besides, bad company does a man real harm, for, as the old proverb has it, if you lie
down with dogs you will get up with fleas. PP103
People whom we esteem, but whom the Lord does not esteem, are a great snare. It is
very perilous to love those who love not God. He shall not be my bosom friend who is
not God’s friend, for I shall probably do him but little service, and he will do me much
harm. 1526.153
So, you who wish to have an exemplary character before God and before men,
remember that, if ill company does not burn you to your hurt, it is sure to blacken
you by damaging your reputation. 3079.78
