1 Corinthians 15:33


Another way they promote madness is to teach two completely different concepts like they were the same thing.
I am talking about 1 Corinthians 15:33 and 2 Thessalonians 3:14.
Also 1 Corinthians 5:9 "I wrote you in my letter not to associate with immoral people";
1 Corinthians 15:33 "Do not be deceived: "Bad company corrupts good morals.""
2 Thessalonians 3:14 If anyone does not obey our instruction in this letter, take special note of that person and do not associate with him, so that he will be put to shame.
It is interesting to know that the word "company" or "associate" found at 1 Corinthians 15:33 is written no where else but there.
Three scriptures they abuse.
1 Corinthians 5:9 means why mingle with people who do not want to be made holy?  Be looking for those people to be made holy for God's will.
2 Thessalonians 3:14 of course is the closest to what they teach.  But really isn't it the logos that is being refered to there?
3056 lógos (from 3004 /légō, "speaking to a conclusion") – a word, being the expression of a thought; a saying. 3056 /lógos ("word") is preeminentlyused of Christ (Jn 1:1), expressing the thoughts of the Father through the Spirit.
So to apply it to what they teach is blasphemous.
Now 1 Corinthians 15:33.  I know it means "do not be lost in your understanding.  Because holiness is corrupted by association with the foul thing. It is a warning about mixing truth with lies.
 planasthe phtheirousin ēthē chrēsta homiliai kakai
not be misled corrupts character good companionship bad.
There are two words in this short scripture that are only used here. (if reading is to be believing)
Company and character.
The Word can transform a person, thus transform the World.  But not if it is mingling with badness.
