Belief in God and religion are 2 separate things

I don't think thats what my friend thinks . He just wants me to be a Christian again.

Make up your own mind about God. You obviously have an opinion about your friend. Two different things. We are all sinners and will never live a perfect life in the eyes of each other or in the eyes of God. Don't use him as to whether you should or should not pursue God.

Humans can be annoying I guess. 😉

Being religious is different than having a relationship with God/Jesus. I was brought up Catholic and found it very cold and distant. Long story made short....when you know there is a God that loves you and wants to have relationship with you, one that hears and answers your prayers, and gives you free will to have that relationship with Him it is very different than being religious. Does that make sense?

SW-User
@msvirginia: it does make sense, even though I don't personally see it the same way. I think spirituality is more about the spiritual being that we have inside us.

It is not for one human being to judge whether another is lost. 'Judge not, lest ye be judged' is good guidance for everyone I think.

SW-User
I agree. And I particularly don't like the statement "you're lost".
oneofnine · 70-79, M
Nor do I. Besides, 'Of all you have given me I lost not one.'

SW-User
He cares about you and wants you to be happy according to his best knowledge

SW-User
So why doesn't he care about himself to that point?

SW-User
@MrMarcus: Maybe he loves you more than he loves himself? 😜 You'll have to ask him that

SW-User
@MissingNotes: lmao that was funny

@CrimsonDays: if he sees me differently than before, and he doesn't like it, then he thinks it's bad. That's why I used that word. It's implicitly there.

How can he tell you to come back to God when clearly he's unsaved himself? Being a atheist doesn't mean God isn't real.

Well the god of the Bible is very hypocritical himself so I suppose your friend is just copying his god.

SW-User
@Wraithorn: I've tried several times to explain him why I don't believe anymore, but he just doesn't want to listen. So I've just decided to let him draw his own conclusions.
Wraithorn · 56-60, M
@MrMarcus: Fair enough. If you want to understand why he thinks that way then read about Cognitive Dissonance. That is something that everyone who is attempting to overcome religious brainwashing experiences.

SW-User
@Wraithorn: thank you for that piece of information, it sounds interesting. I'll check it out.
