“We should not completely withdraw from all unconverted people. It would be cowardice and indolence to do so, even if it were possible; it would remove many opportunities of doing good. Rather, we should mix with them prayerfully, firmly resolved to take our Master and our Master's business with us. There are two questions which we can profitably ask in this connection. First, ‘Do I, in company, spend all my time in light and worldly conversation?' Second, ‘Do I endeavor to follow, however feebly, the example of Christ?'…So long as we go into company as Christ went to the Pharisee's house, we will come to no harm.” J.C. Ryle
