Many Christians get one of these wrong.
Some separate themselves from the world so completely that they stop loving the people in it.
Others become so accepted by the world that they become indistinguishable from it.
Jesus did neither.
He ate with sinners.
He touched lepers.
He showed compassion to the broken.
Yet He never lowered the standard of truth.
A.W. Tozer wrote:
"We are sent to bless the world, but we are never told to compromise with it."
The church is called to be a light.
A light must be in the darkness.
But it must never become part of the darkness.
The answer is not isolation.
The answer is not compromise.
The answer is faithful obedience to Christ.
"Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind." — Romans 12:2
Where do you think Christians today struggle more:
Compromise or isolation?
