Be an influence

This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.
1 Timothy 1:15

Though we have to watch those we walk with, we should be careful not to shun sinners totally, cos Christ came to this world to save sinners and since we got saved, we are to carry on that legacy. If we also had been left alone without being shown The Way, then we would still be lost.

We have to show others the right way, we should not be scared to stand for the truth no matter what. They don't have to like us, Christ wasn't liked much, but we have to keep doing our part and one day God will come through for them.

We were once sinners, so never look down on anyone, but be an influence rather than being influenced.
