“How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of scoffers” (Psalm 1:1)!
The text is a vivid portrayal of the slippery slope created by cultural influences. The psalmist offers a virulent depiction of the growing comfort with things standing in opposition to what God would desire for you; a progressive regression from walking to sitting; from a passing acquaintance with those holding secular viewpoints on life, to the accepting embrace and seated comfort with this lifestyle of destructive end.
