A smart Christian is able to be honest with him/herself to recognize when they are avoiding fellowship with their friends who will speak Truth into their lives. A wise Christian will take steps towards finally seeking those friends out.

“And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free” John 8:32

“Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ,..” Ephesians 4:15
