Bad Company Corrupts Good Morals

Scripture teaches that bad company corrupts good morals and gives us many examples of that fact. Sodom corrupted the good morals of Lot. Solomon's wives corrupted his good morals. The pagan nations corrupted the Israelites through intermarriage. The immoral man of 1 Corinthians 5 corrupted the entire church. This being the case, parents need to protect their children from bad company or they will see all their attempts to raise them in the fear and admonition of the Lord go down the toilet.
