Should You Follow The Multitude?
By Mark Flippo
On Christmas Island, you will find a sea of crabs. Upwards of 45 million crabs walk across the island, causing locals to have to drive really slow on the roads. Christmas Island red crabs are well known for their annual mass migration to the sea to lay their eggs in the ocean.
Exodus 23:2
“Thou shalt not follow a multitude to do evil; neither shalt thou speak in a cause to decline after many to wrest judgment:”
It is kind of odd that every time I looked up a multitude in the Bible it never had a positive connotation. Most of the time it said the multitude was going to do evil. I was taken a little back on that fact. It must have something to do with the scripture that straight is the gate and narrow is the way that leadeth to heaven. It says broad is the path that leadeth to destruction. Maybe that is where the mass hysteria comes in. Masses can become very dangerous very quickly. It looks like this lesson is about being very careful who you run with.
