"Can two walk together, except they be agreed?" Amos 3:3
"Abstain from all appearance of evil." 1 Thessalonians 5:22
"But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves." James 1:22
"All things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient:" 1 Corinthians 6:12
The issue is not about religion. Religion could care less what you see, say or do.
A Christian should seek to live a life that is clean, holy and above reproach. He should exhibit both attitude and actions so as to be of good report. Practices which are questionable or which may cause another person to stumble or which may mar the testimony of Christ should be avoided altogether. Therefore personal standards of demeanor and deportment are expected (Eph. 2:10; 4:1; 5:1-4; Phil. 1:27; 3:14-21; 4:8-9).
It really does boil down to whom are you serving? Christ (I died daily), or yourself? Who is on the throne, you or God? Does God have a blessed ministry through you or a pleading ministry to you?
