ईसाई धर्म सवाल

My friend doesn't approve of my faith..

So my friend and I have known each other for a while, and I knew her before I was Christian. Then I went through a lot of depression, self-mutilation, and a lot of crap. Long story short, I became a Christian, and am a lot happier. Me and her used to be Wiccan, I'm not sure about her p.o.v. anymore. But now she occasionally makes fun of me. She asked me how many times a week I go to church, and I कहा twice a week, and she कहा "Oh, wow. आप have no life anymore."

And then she was calling these people rude names, and I told her it wasn't nice, and she hit me and कहा "Stupid Christians. Why are आप so fucking nice? Those people probably hate आप anyway."

Now whenever she catches me listening to Christian music, या doing bible study hw, या anything related to it, I get so afraid. I dont want to be ashamed of Jesus, but I just don't want her to know anything about it I guess, cause I don't want her to insult God, and also me. How do I make her stop, and realize how much God has helped me? If I hadn't found God, I और than likely would have killed myself द्वारा now.

ईसाई धर्म जवाब

thetacoman said:
Some people just are genuinely mean. But, that means we must प्यार them more.
And, why be embarrassed? 'For if our God is for us, then who can stand against us?'
The immediate solution is to back off from her for a while, or, if that's not possible, ask her why.
If she says Christians are stupid, ask why.
If she says God is not good, ask why.
It is very likely she will have no answer, and if she knows that her snide टिप्पणियाँ will always be met with 'why?' she will stop.

I'm so glad that you've found Christ (sorry if this sounds like "Oh yeah, got some fresh bait!" ;) ).
Pray for your friend, that she'll see the change in you, and want that change also. It may not seem like much, praying, but prayer is a powerful thing. Just give your cares up to God.
दिखाना her the same kindness that आप showed to those people she was calling names. Not guaranteeing that it'll work instantly, but it's hard to be mad at someone who shows kindness to you.
अगला time she taunts या makes fun of you, tell her "I don't like आप making fun of me, या my God. आप have your beliefs, and I would like it if आप don't trash on mine." One और thing आप can do is look up Bible verses as encouragements. Psalms 55: 22 and James 1: 2-4 are really good.
Hope this helps आप some, and I'll be praying for आप also. God bless!

I'm not ashamed of येशु and आप shouldn't be either. Tell your friend that if she really loves you, she should respect your new found belief and आप respect her's. Tell her you're proud to be a Christian. Stand द्वारा God. He tests your faith every now and then and don't be afraid to दिखाना your faith. If she says you're an idiot for believing 'crud', say I will follow what I want to follow. This has helped my character and my attitude and I don't want to stray away. If she scoffs and still says the same things, say please respect my choices and I will respect your's. Otherwise, please leave the subject about it alone.
I tend to get touchy with my religion about non believers because I fear I'll be shunned. But I still go for it and take a risk because I know it's for God. Trust in Him and don't let your faith falter.
God bless you!!:D

Pray for your friend. She obviously see's a change in you, but does not understand it. प्यार her, respond to her टिप्पणियाँ calmly. Once she sees that she can't upset आप with her comments, she'll eventually either stop या try to figure out why.
Just remember, for now आप are the येशु that your friend sees. There may be things that the two of आप won't do together. That's fine.
With prayer, प्यार and explainig what has made a change in your life, आप are planting a seed in her life. It's a seed that the Holy Spirt will cause to grow, and help her to see the truth. I would suggest never stop praying for her and trust God will work for you. God bless.

Whenever a Christian person acts this way, people normally say something along the lines of "that's not very christian of आप to act this way."
Maybe आप should remind her that it's not very Pagan to act this way. How would her God and Goddess feel about her making fun of another person? What about the threefold law?

Everyone has the right to their own religion no matter what it is, being a Wiccan she should know that और than anyone as pagan religions aren't really accepted in society.
I myself am a Pagan and I think maybe आप should remind her (in a NICE way) how much it hurts when someone insults your religion.

I will however say that I am happy for आप that आप found a path that makes आप happy and आप should embrace that and not worry about what people think, however, if आप feel that being not-so-open about आप religion with some people would be best for you, there's no shame in doing that.
(:
Blessed Be and best wishes to you, good luck!

I know how आप feel. I have a friend who is Catholic like me, except she is the total oposite of what the faith teaches. I'm not just talking lying here, I'm talking about drugs, alcohol, and cursing up a storm! She calls me a goody two shoes and it hurts my feelings because doing what's right doesn't make me a "goody two shoes". Just hang in there, because while आप are happy and your friend isn't, she'll wonder what makes आप different than her. And that's your faith. Just be nice to her and pray for her. and welcome to the faith :)

This may not be the most Christian advise but drop your friend. I mean honestly unless your friend can respect आप not even has to agree but respect your life then आप don't need them. They will drag आप down with them and it won't stop from there. I am not saying आप hate them या don't pray for them but just leave them alone. When they mature some then its ok to talk but don't let your emotions overrule your since of judgement. Funny joke but the bible says "if your eye offendeth thee, pluck it out" i take that literally and apply it to life situations

anyone who can critisize आप for believeing in something they dont agree with, is NO friend at all. i mean आप dont get nasty at her, and critisize her religion, so why should she get down on you? id say pray for her, and if that dont work, drop her.
