Companions and Friendship

1Co 15:33 Do not be deceived: "Evil company corrupts good habits."


Proverbs 13: 20 He who walks with wise men will be wise, But the companion of fools will be destroyed.

• What if we spend much of our time with the wise/successful?

• What if we spend much of our time with the lazy, gossip, etc.?

• What about the one we marry?


Proverbs 27:17 As iron sharpens iron, So a man sharpens the countenance of

his friend.


Proverbs 27:5-6 Open rebuke is better than love carefully concealed. Faithful

are the wounds of a friend, but the kisses of an enemy are deceitful.


Proverbs 17:9 He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates friends.


Proverbs 16:28-29 A perverse man sows strife, And a whisperer separates the best of friends. A violent man entices his neighbor,

And leads him in a way that is not good.


Proverbs 22:24 Make no

friendship with an angry man,

And with a furious man do

not go
