Family Can Ruin Your Walk with Christ

Many families have ruined those who want to walk with Christ because those who love their families more than Christ are dumbing down their walk to be acceptable by their families.
These family systems seek to demean anyone who has chosen Christ over them. They work against what Christ is doing in the life of the believer. When these people cannot control you or deter you from Christ they will attempt to influence others against you so that you have no support system. Never mind this method because we have no need of people to support us when we have the Living Christ in us walking with us in and through everything.
The attempts of family to undermine us through gossip will not influence our walk as long as we remove the gossiper and the one who listens the the gossiper. It is possible to remove ourselves from those who work against us, even if those gossipers claim to be Christian we can discern their motives and tactics and remain separate from them.
Those who remain with ungodly family will be influenced by them ultimately dumbing down their walk to fit in to the group-think.
John 12:43
"43 for they loved the approval of people rather than the approval of God."
If your family means more to you than your walk with Christ they are the Lord in your heart, not Jesus Christ.
2 Corinthians 6:17
"17 Therefore, come out from their midst and be separate,” says the Lord.
“And do not touch what is unclean;
And I will welcome you."
