AMPLIFIED 2015 | Psalm 1:1 Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked [following their advice and example], Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit [down to rest] in the seat of scoffers (ridiculers). |
Bible Question: What does "stand in the path of sinners" mean? |
Bible Answer: Matthew 7:13 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. (Whole Chapter: Matthew 7 In context: Matthew 7:12-14) Matthew 7:14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. (Whole Chapter: Matthew 7 In context: Matthew 7:13-15) I think "nor stand in the path of the sinners" might mean dont be on the road that leads to destruction(with the sinners), but walk on the narrow road(with the righteous)so you can go to heaven |
