'Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them (Matthew 7:20)
You are a member of the body of Christ which Jesus is the head. Having known this, you are expected to live a certain pattern of lifestyle. A Godly lifestyle that hates evil and loves good. 'Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is the Lord, and his laws doth he meditates day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of waters that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither, and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper (Psalm 1:1-3).

A godly lifestyle is different from an ungodly lifestyle. There are not in any way similar. The ungodly may go to a nightclub, but you are not to go with them because it is not your lifestyle. The ungodly may beat up the wife when there is disagreement, but you can't do such a thing, because you have been commanded by your Boss to love your wife just as He loved the church. If what you do in the private is brought to the open and is edifying: thumbs for you. It is the fruit of the Holy Spirit that distinguishes you from the ungodly not speaking tongues. 'But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance...' (Galatians 5:22-23)
