I would like to ask a question about this as well. First I better set up the senario. I am a 27 year old male, recently married and in December of last year I stepped into a new role as a branch manager for a Cooperative that sells feed,, seed, and chemicals among other things.
Here is my problem when I was hired at this new position I was hired to be trained (I have a working knowledge of Agriculture but not the product specific knowledge) and the ex-manager was moved to salesman.The ex-manager whom I have no control over is the problem, he claims to be a christian but treats others horribly. He is rude to my employees, smirks and eye rolls to me, and is terrible to be around. He is a deacon in his church but how he shows his faith to others in work is terrible. I am constantly on edge as I do not know what person he will be each day and how he will treat others. I know that me saying anything will not relieve the situation either. My biggest problems though is probably my wounded pride which I realize is wrong, and how he speaks to others who are new christians and then ask me if that is how a christian should act.
So long story short how do I keep my faith up when he constantly puts a strain on it, how do I humble myself and let God handle it, and finally how do I explain to these other young believers about his behavior? Lord jesus warned us in matt ch.10, beware of wolves in sheeps clothing.psalm 27:11TEACH ME THY WAY, O LORD, AND LEAD ME IN PLAIN PATH, BECAUSE OF MINE ENEMIES.Isaih 50:8, Who is mine adversary?Let him come near to me.:9, Behold, the Lord GOD will help me:Isiah57:15, With him also that is of a contrite and HUMBLE spririt, to revive the spirit of the humble,.Talk to GOD, pray, contact those in your company who have proper authority to remove the jerk.If that avenue isn't avaivable, keep praying to GOD, last resort, labor dept will give a attitude adjustment, contact labor dept.

LUKE chapter2 or 3, john the Baptist used water to try to get people to repent, Baptist goes on to say one is coming who will baptize you with the holy ghost and with fire[truth].Faith in GOD and repenting are very important.
