Playing on the Freeway


Train a monkey to act more human.  Watch him learn in isolation from other monkeys.  But place him back among his own kind and his actions will quickly revert to what it was before all you taught him began.  Be careful how much you fellowship with the unsaved.  They will certainly draw you back.   The Lord does not make the following warning without cause.

“ ‘Come out of her, my people,

so that you will not share in her sins,

so that you will not receive any of her plagues;

5 for her sins are piled up to heaven,

and God has remembered her crimes.

6 Give back to her as she has given;

pay her back double for what she has done.

Pour her a double portion from her own cup.

7 Give her as much torment and grief

as the glory and luxury she gave herself.

In her heart she boasts,

‘I sit enthroned as queen.

I am not a widow;

I will never mourn.’

8 Therefore in one day her plagues will overtake her:

death, mourning and famine.

She will be consumed by fire,

for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.  (Revelation 18)

Men think that because they do not respect God or His laws, they are not liable to His punishments.  Go ahead and play on the freeway.  Close your eyes and just have a grand ole time.  Are you sure nothing bad will happen to you?
