Mark 14:66-67 - "As Peter was below in the courtyard,
one of the servant-girls of the high priest came, and seeing Peter warming
himself, she looked at him and said, 'You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.'”
How tragic for us when those who don't know Christ (and know
we profess Him) see us in compromised situations. There are a number of places
we might think of in this regard (may the Holy Spirit show us accordingly).
These provide absolutely no "spiritual warmth."
The warmth of the fires of this world are indifferent if not
hostile to our God. So, why would we seek to betray our Lord by seeking out
associations that will never fulfill? The Lord Jesus Christ has promised a fire
that will not be quenched, full of His holy love that will dwell in the heart
of every believer that would but trust in Him. May we not turn toward the
warmth that the world offers that will only promote mockery toward our God. May
we seek Jesus and the Eternal Fire that He desires to grow in all those He
calls His own.
