Do not let them hurt your view of the faith. Before I was a Christian I dealt with many people who called themselves Christians. They called me a sinner and told me I would go to hell. But they were the ones who would have multiple different sexual relations throughout the year. It was them who would insult everyone the first chance they got. They would curse and have pornography with them wherever they went. Though I was not a Christian at the time I felt I followed the morals of the Bible better than they did. I don't know why people like this exist and why they cling to the faith they do not follow...

Kind of like on Porky's...where the KKK or town council was against everything, and then they were watching porn in the basement?

This is one of the reasons why I left the first church I went to when I moved back here.

Head up! With God, all things are possible. Bask in His glow and find strength in Him, not other man...that's what I always say.

Bask in His glow and find strength in Him, not other man...see? I'm always saying it.

Greetings and Blessings!

The best advice I have for you is this...

No matter where you go, there is always going to be an opposing force "trial" to test your faith.

Even in churches across the World, there are people that are not always into the Gospel like you would expect them to be.

The best thing you can do is to stay true to your faith. Do not become weak in Spirit. Infact, you need to protect your spirit from this opposite force.

I advise you to pray and seek a friend(s) that are into the Gospel and who want to live a Christian life like you.

"See and ye shall find... Knock and it shall be open" Matthew 7:7-8

I have some questions here because I just moved from a public school to a private high school. I'm 16, and started at a Private Christian School in SoCal.

I've been a pretty good Christian, church most sundays, generally owning up to things, etc.

Anyway at this new school, its all christian students. The school is elementary -through- high school, and most of them have been at the same school around eachother for a long time. So I started this year, and figured that you know other christians around would make things easier.

But everyone is not really acting like I think a good christian should. Like treating people, its worse than it was in a public school. Totally seeing groups, especially with the more wealthy students cokmpared to some of the poorer ones. And they are drinking and stuff on the weekends, ive already figured that one out, even though they totally latch onto other peoples "sins" during they week.

So the question is, how do i show them what they are doing is wrong without being like an open jerk to them.?

hey hospitaller!

i know exactly what you're dealing with...i go to a Christian school as well. i've never attended a public school, but many of my friends have, and they say that the attitudes of people in a Christian school are 10x worse than those in a public school.

i know how discouraging it can be when people all around you claim the name of Jesus, but don't back it up with their attitudes and actions...i have many so-called "friends" who claim that they are Christians, but the truth is they just say that so people won't bother them about it.

anyway, the answer i have come up with is to "kill them with kindness"...there is a "right" way to say EVERYTHING...it may take you a while to figure out how to deal with a situation, but through prayer, God will show you what to say, so keep believing in God's ability to do anything and everything...and keep asking Him for answers.

Excellent advice, repeat one thing though ...

Don't look at man, he even disappointed God

Hypocrites... They have always existed, exist now and will exist in the future...

Some hypocrites are newbies and just don't know any better...

Others are raised that way by how they see their parents behavior...

Some will say anything to fit in some group...

This is what Christ said " You Come Follow Me "

Leave the hypocrites to Him...

at a christian school does not mean that the kids are going to have less pressure to be kids. it is not your job to show them what they are doing wrong Jesus did not point that out when he was here He was just a light an example we can only be Christ like. Ask God To Bless you with a true friend that loves the Lord like you do and wants to grow in truth and spirit.
