It is easy to cry “a confederacy,” but that union which is not based upon the truth of God is rather a conspiracy than communion. Charity by all means; but honesty also. Love, of course, but love to God as well as love to men, and love of truth as well as love of union.
Charles H. Spurgeon, in The Downgrade Controversy

There is, today, a move away from the deep endearing knowledge of God and what He wants us to know. We are shallow in knowledge, relationship and living. We can no longer call our selves Christians because we do not pass the test of "Christ like." We want what we want and tend to move through the buffet line of the Bible, picking and choosing our desires. By this we allow our selves to indulge in worldly thought and actions.
We are called to be a separate people, distinct from the world and its practices. Those that call themselves Christians today practice worldly things and are no longer identifiable as Christians.
In Spirit and In Truth The Word
FOLLOW THAT GOOD THING
Psa 38:20 They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is.
21 Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
22 Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.
How many have adversaries, enemies do we have in this world today. Do not be misled, those that ridicule you are your enemies. They stand against you. They will label you as “conspiracy theorist.” By labeling you with names they are setting you up as deranged and demented. There are not 80 million nor 40 million nor 10 million conspiracy theorists today. This simply an attempt to shut people up and cause people not to express what they believe the truth is.
David said, “because I follow the thing that good is.” David is making a statement that even though he is a sinner and does commit sin, that he will confess that sin before God. He wants to live a life that is good but occasionally slips. He declares his iniquity and is sorry for his sin.
His enemies use his mis-steps against him. His enemies rejoice over his mistakes. This is a common malady to this day. There are those that are hateful from their youth. There are those that are deniers of God and live a contrary life. Then there are those that know better but will attempt to tear down any that attempt to live a life that they envy and mock and ridicule.
David said, “Forsake me not,” and, “Make haste to help,.” We must always remember who created us, who saved us and who we serve. God almighty stands with us and for us. NEVER BE SHAMED BY FOOLS
