Facebook, Myspace, etcPosted : 25 Apr, 2010 07:45 PMI'm not sure how this would apply to social networking. I think this has more to do with those with whom we have relationships. I think it applies to friendships, dating, marriage, business, and others kinds of relationships that require constant vigilance and maintenance. Social networking is a rather odd thing to consider here because these verses have more to do with what will influence you or conflict with your morals and beliefs. I have friends on myspace like Eric Clapton and James Taylor and I don't think they are Christians but I don't do business with them or consider them personal friends. I really doubt that we would be unless Eric wanted to play on one of my CD's!! :ROFL: |

Facebook, Myspace, etcPosted : 25 Apr, 2010 10:12 PMI don't think that verse was referring to "friendship" with unbelievers. Maybe business partners...spouses...church members....not friends. Friends are like family...but they lead separate lives for the most part. I think the bible is warning about "yoking" yourself to people you aren't planning to be separated from...the ones you share a large part of your life with... |

Facebook, Myspace, etcPosted : 25 Apr, 2010 10:44 PMA word about yoking. When animals are yoked they are in a bond that can only be broken by the one that yoked them. When they are yoked together they must work cooperatively in order to make progress. They have to learn how to work with another animal when they are yoked. If they try to go in opposite directions they get nowhere or the weaker animal goes along with the stronger animal. In every case of animals being yolked it is for the purpose of labor. They are directed by a driver so that they stay together on the same path or course in order to accomplish their purpose. |

Facebook, Myspace, etcPosted : 26 Apr, 2010 08:48 PMWhat Thunder said was pretty good and inline with the word, I believe a key word here is fellowship, how does darkness fellowship with light, and the yoke principle, you will be worn out if you enter a yoke with an unbeliever, even at times a believer can really be a weight. You see this thruout the old testament the lord continually told his people to stay from the non Jews, that you be not influenced by their Gods. |
