Contamination

~Do you drink poision and expect someone else to die?~

What a statement, as the scriptures state:
2 Corinthians 7:1

Since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God.

Think of how many times we contaminate our faith and do things that we know we shouldn't. Or even in midst of doing something that we don't think is wrong, we get a feeling that it is but we continue to do it. Listed are some of the things I think of (you can list others):

-Watch movies that start off okay but then turn
-Listening to music that contain bad language or suggestive content
-Ask for advice just to ask and not follow
-Hold a grudge against anyone (disciple or not)
-Do half hearted reasearch on topics we need to cahnge
-Drive our vehicles too fast (75mph vs 65-70 (the law))

These things while they may not seem to contaminate us, eventually does.

Tell me your thoughts!
