1 Corinthians 15:33 Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners. While seeking for a rainbow in the Handeck Falls another lesson was learned. A beautiful butterfly was sporting in the sunshine, and either through carelessness, or the fascination of the pearly drops which shot from the fall in profusion, went too near, was caught in the falling shower, and hurled to destruction in the awful gulf two hundred feet below. Who does not see in this an every-day occurrence? Young people, in the thoughtlessness which the pursuit of pleasure engenders, go to places in winch they "see no harm," and, alas! are soon hurled into the gulf of disgrace here, and of everlasting despair hereafter. (Gavin Kirkham.) Parallel Verses KJV: Be not deceived: evil communications corrupt good manners.WEB: Don't be deceived! "Evil companionships corrupt good morals." |
