Specifically Exodus 23:2 says that we should not “follow the masses in doing evil.”
I suppose it is because we were created social beings that we want to have commonality with our fellows. Yet, this drive for commonality tends to gravitate to the lowest common denominator.
We follow trends in fashion, books, political philosophy, etc., often without stopping to consider what Scripture says on the subject.
When we are following the masses without being informed by Scripture, it will end up moving toward evil. May we become so attuned to Scripture that we can spot the evil or counterfeit right away.
