Exodus 23:2 – Do not follow the crowd in doing wrong. When
you give testimony in a lawsuit, do not pervert justice by siding with the
crowd.
Most people would like to be popular, but popularity comes
with a price. Being popular or with the “in” crowd, one must submit to the ways
of that crowd. If you venture to do something different than the majority, then
you are viewed as an outcast or a trouble maker and could possibly be
extricated from the group. According to our text, we must be careful who we
CHOOSE to follow and what philosophy we choose to live by. Crowds that view God’s
way as the wrong way are crowds we want to stay clear of. There will be consequences
to every choice we make!
Remember, there are always three sides to every story: the
two people giving their side of the story and the truth, God’s side!
