I feel horrible (Gospel, hell, agnostic, believer) - Christianity - - City-Data Forum

{Ukiaon} · 07-07-2009, 02:26 AM

For a few weeks, I had been witnessing to someone on another forum. This individual is an agnostic. I could tell that this person was beginning to become a little receptive to the word of the Lord I've shared with them.

Then someone comes out of nowhere on that same board who knows me and was mad at me and decided to publicly bash me about about my room not being clean. Then I could tell that the person I had been witnessing to just lost all faith. I saw this person make a comment in another thread like "as soon as you think someone is genuine, you find out they are a fraud". But I am not a fraud.

My housekeeping habits have nothing to do with my salvation. I can't stand this lie that everybody thinks is in the bible but it's not:

"Cleanliness is Next to Godliness"

Jesus doesn't even care if you aren't clean on the outside, he looks at the inside. So I guess all homeless people must have a ticket to hell because they can't bathe. I think not!

I'm just so upset. That was a soul.

The devil is just busy.

I just ask that you pray for me. I'm really choked up about this.

If you love yourself enough, it won't matter what someone else thinks of you.

You should read "When I loved Myself Enough" by Kim McMillen.

No one has the right to tell you how to live or how things should be. You're just trying to make it in this world like everyone else.

Oh don't be upset.....

..... don't cry.

If a pre-believer cannot accept you and appreciate you for who you are, then perhaps it's time for you to turn over the matter into God's Hands and just pray for him/her. The Bible says no accusation formed against you will prosper and God will vindicate you (Isaiah 54:17)

Take this as a lesson and clean up your room next time .....

My friend I have good news for you. There is nothing we can or can't do to drive people away from God, God is the one who saves; When God calls on him or her they will come-You are just one of many God will use to cross that person's path. You did what God asked you so REJOICE! for you have obeyed God and shared your faith thereby giving God the glory.

Someone coming to christ is going to happen when God has it planned for that to happen. It is our Job to share the good news because we are instructed to do so. Someone not responding to your witness has nothing inherantly to do with you or them, it simply was not meant to be at that time. This does not mean it will never happen, you may have just been part of the process.

Neat freaks can be troublesome sometimes. But those of us who clean up the house only when we want to, do understand.

is this a classified ad seeking an illegal house maid?

How do you think the the billions feel who have not been chosen of God but just been created to be sent to eternal hell to be fried . You are worrying about nothing if the Christian gospel is anything to go by
