Do not compromise with the world

1 Kings 13:1-10
The man of God from Judah to Bethel. He cried out against the altar by the word of the Lord: "O altar! This is what the Lord says:'A son named Josiah will be born to the house of David. On you he will sacrifice the offerings here, and human bones will be burned on you." The same day the man of God gave a sign: "This is the sign the Lord has declared: The altar will be split apart and the ashes on it will be poured out."
When King Jeroboam heard what the man of God cried out against the altar at Bethel, he stretched out his hand from the altar and said,"Seize him!" But the hand he stretched out toward the man shrived up, so that he could not pull it back. Also the altar was split apart and its ashes poured out according to the sign given by the man of God by the word of the Lord.
Why?
The man of God who obeyed the word of God so he would not accept any reward from man or king. If desire any profit or benefit and disobey the word of the Lord may induce trouble and dead.
It is the sign from the Lord to tell Jeroboam that God hate what he did in Bethel. But he did not listen. And Jeroboam wanted to use force and money or benefit to earn the man of God. But it was failed.
Do not compromise with the world or bribe anything on the world. For Christian should be the light and salt in the world.
How?
To be an honest Christian to the Lord, trust in the Lord and obey his command.
