We wouldn’t dream of drinking poison; yet we poison ourselves every day. In all fairness, we do it to each other. Shame on us if everyone seated at the table is a so-called “Christian”. We ought to tend to our spiritual health the way we tend to our physical health, and we ought to help each other out, not harm one another with tempting morsels that make us sick.

Spiritual Warfare!
If we let down our guard, we let our enemies have access to our souls.

2 Co 2:11 NASU
so that no advantage would be taken of us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes.
