Christ says,
When an unclean spirits goes out of a man, he goes through dry places seeking rest and finds none and he says i will return to my house from which i came. and when he comes he finds everything swept and put in order, then he comes and takes more spirits wicked than himself and dwell there. And the last state of that man is worst than the first.
So is Christ saying when we have recieved the holy spirit and do away with our evil spirits, should we not be lurking outside at nights, going to clubs, hanging with people in streets? What God seeks is Love, Truth and Meekness, so what difference would it make where you are at. Maybe he's insisted to live through the Narrow gate of being with your family, praying, reading bible, fasting, working. I have someone in Ethiopia and he lives a very Narrow life. He wakes in the morning several hours before the sun rises, does his prayer and reading, eats his breakfast and he's off to work the whole day. He comes back home to his family eats his dinner and sleeps. Is this the narrow path God is seeking for us to live. Will this put away eveil spirits?
