(1 Co. 2:14‑16)
 The man of God naturally kept himself apart from the four hundred prophets—a good example for the king of Judah who had joined himself to the profane king. The very sad but necessary result of this alliance is that he follows Ahab instead of following Micah. Such is the effect of “evil communications” upon the believer. Never does one see the opposite effect produced, that is to say, that the world follows the example of God’s children. (Ahab and Jehoshaphat: 1 Kings 22 by H.L. Rossier)
