TITLE : WICKED WAYS.

Text:"Thus saith the Lord, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed of the signs of Heaven; for heathen are dismay at them."Jeremiah10:2(KJV)

In Dying Testimonies of Saved and Unsaved, Solomon Benjamin Shaw narrated the testimony of John, an only child of a godly couple who imbibed dreadful principles
from a non-believing roommate at college. As a result, John hardened his heart towards
embracing Christianity.

He referred to the Bible as “a compiled mess of trash imposed
on the public. I would rather go to hell than bow to that impostor (Jesus Christ) and be dependent on his merits for salvation.” On
his death bed, following an accident, John cried focusing his eyes on his roommate, “You have brought me to this, and you have
damned my soul! May the curses of the Almighty and the Lamb rest upon your soul forever.”

John died without Christ. Our text
sternly warns, “…learn not the way of the heathen”. Let me ask you: Who is your friend? Some youths have through the
influence of ungodly friends become atheists. Shun evil friendship; submit to God
and fellowship with God’s children. Surely, heaven will be your reward.

Challenge: Learn not the way of the heathen.

Prayer:Lord, help me to shun the way of the ungodly.

Further Reading:2 Corinthians 6:14-18.

Quotation:Shun evil friendship.
