Book excerpt: In the religious climate of today, it is important to know what God says our crowd should be. Through the use of well over two hundred passages of scripture, Dr. Shelton Smith defines the fundamental crowd for us. Evaluating our crowd by the standard of the Word of God may sometimes cost us some friends, and they may accuse us of abandoning them. But our separation from them will not be because the Bible has changed. It will be because they have hoisted anchor and drifted with the winds. Make sure you are sailing in safe waters with the right crowd.
