to believe in God and go to Church.

Oh Dear, religion is such a touchy subject. I have the same issue m'dear. My mother is a very religious person, but she doesn't talk about it constantly because my father doesn't share the exact same views. Well, my grandparents are scrit baptists, and they want me saved. They've already convinced my brother to be saved, and that's what he believes, but they are begging me. the only that's stopping them from dragging against my will is my father, who says I can make decisions for myself. I was atheist, but i'e thought, and i don't know what I am. I don't excatly believe in a God, but I'm not exactly ruleing out that there is something else out there.
Maybe you should try to explain your reasoning to your family. Explain all the reasons that you have come to this conclusion. if they still don't understand (which from their reactions, I don't think they will), tell them to back off you for awhile. That you have to think about it. That forcing you to go, and trying to force you to beleive, is making you resent Christianity, and that will deem you to hell. So if they really want to help, give you some time> tell them that there are plenty of people who have founf Christ as their savior when they were in their 30's or 40's. That it'll never be too late for you. Grant it, none of this will be true, but if they really believe in the Chrsitian faith, they should accept this answer. And keep a bible by your bed, everytime they walk in at night, open it up and pretend you were reading it. I know this isn't the most honest of solutions, but I don't really think anything else would really work. ![]() |
