If we are truly saved, we are one of God's people and we belong to the household of God, and must see one another as our true spiritual family. We are called to be a peculiar people who belong to Christ, not to this world, and that should affect how we think, live, dress, speak, and represent Him before others. The Bible warns us not to conform to the world or let its voices, friendships, and ideas steal our hearts away from God, but to stand with Christ and His people even when it brings reproach. We need to be challenged to choose, like Joshua and Moses, whether we will serve the Lord faithfully, bear His reproach, and let our light shine in these last days.
