 God calls friendship with the world adultery (James 4:4). Has our lack of separation resulted in households where our children walk and talk the language of the world? Appearing or sounding different may be hard for us all, but it is especially so when we are young. Our children will not go beyond the example we set. It is our natural tendency to be drawn to those things that please the flesh. Worldliness has been Satan’s most successful tactic in diluting the testimony of the church. (Mixed Marriages - Neh. 13:23-31 by N. Simon)
 This was the evil that had so deeply afflicted the heart of Ezra (chap. 9:1-3), and which he earnestly sought to eradicate; but it had started up again, and confronted Nehemiah also all through his labors (chap. 9:2; 10:30, etc.) with its sad and open testimony to the state of the people. For what did it declare? That Israel was abandoning the ground of separation unto God. (Exposition on Nehemiah: Nehemiah 13 by E. Dennett)
