Most evil gathering or cluster of people are those who call themselves righteous.

Moment you noticed a believer or a group of people trying to pass across a message that they are holy and you are not. Just understand that is a sign of filthiness of a higher order.
It's a red flag to the characteristic of righteousness when people show they're perfect and still boasts around with it.
To boast in the Lord doesn't equate to boasting around like a goat. They are totally different.
Yes,our righteousness is not ours but God's. And a truly righteous person doesn't make out a religion out of God's righteousness. He simply lives his simple lifestyle and let others see the light by themselves. He doesn't impose. He doesn't even call himself righteous until people around called him so.
You don't give yourself credibility. Credibility is what others give you.
If the message you preach is holiness and people are pretending under you. Then it means you're not actually preaching holiness. You're building a cult of pretenders. A more deadlier evil than evil.
Bible is Bible and it is full of many messages for a balanced diet and not just a particular message.
What I have discovered is that those who tend to specialise on a particular context instead of whole concept of Bible breed people who are more deadly to the whole mission of Christ.
Especially among group of people that call themselve holy. The evil you see amongst them is more scary to behold. And you will wonder if this is what the message is all about? To keep pretending?
It's even far more 'holy' to relate with a pure devil than to relate with a pure pretender.
Because you will know you're dealing with a devil and know how not to enter into his traps than someone you're already in his traps without knowing.
Much more, there is a great joy,peace and love in the atmosphere with the right people. So still, God is far much the best we must allow to determine our ATMOSPHERE,not any segregation or segregated righteousness.
We're to remain simple, spiritual,social and avoid being lured into any form of PRETENCE.
God bless.
