Belonging to a group can be bad or good. Fear can cause someone to do something they would not normally do. God gave us the Ten Commandments to help us. He expects us to obey them. Experiencing God's love and knowing Jesus as one's best friend can give one peace and an inner glow. |
"Make new friends, but keep the old; one is silver, the other gold."
