It has been said about posts on Christian message boards that the perfect post needs no response, it stands without correction nor any further commentary; except an amen.

Amen! (so be it)

thank you :) I appreciate it

Very true :) one thing i had against christian churches when i slided was how ive been treated and been tried to put me in a box, conforming. How all i am and are and think never fit the mold. Im not been a typical eat sleep tv do as all person. I dont drink. I dont have tv. I like innocent things. Im intellectual. Im visionary. Im a free spirit. Somehow i felt boxed and with outspoken expectations.

Even when i talk, im interested in deeper, and more neaning and not i baked a cake talk. Im not judging though but the feeling of not be accepted and not contained, as i am.. Well yes it has happened. More times than i care to think of. Then, it was the worldly behavior, and thinking. I was so naive i thought people be rid of it, right. Not so. So im sitting there bored and not accepted too just because i dont do facebook, for example.

So much happened, so much. Or, a conversation about christian finance, and i say, lets share, but give eachother freedom.. I dont have to say, it ended there. Same, same, same. Im sticking out. I cant be boxed.

Yes i had that in my last one. I made two friends out of 209 approx over two churches. They were very stiff and conservative towards me. I got into depression. Still they tried to drag me to church but when i was i was ignored. Single you know. Then, im told shh, shut up dont speak about your experiences they cant take it by the priest!  Im so afraid end up in a church like that again being as vulnerable i am. Thats the last i need. And from my readings it doesnt look bright.

Thats why i havent went yet, as even those without church have their problems.  I can talk as others i look normal etc im very social. But, they sense im not like them.  Im functioning on a high mental level, not with any superiority, but .. I find on,y those very godly, spiritual, good people, people that are intellectual, visionary, artsy, going out of conformity and what youre supposed to say and do, that only they are on my level, and dont judge ne, or try put me in a box or think im weird just because.

4 minutes ago, eileenhat said:

Not every believer has the Holy Spirit.  Some do, some don't (the Bible refers to them as lukewarm Christians).

They do not have Jesus in their hearts, just their minds.  So they are blind to the dominance of the Holy Spirit.

They are of course referred to in Rev. 3:16.

I like what commentary Mathew Henry says about them

" Christ expects men should be in earnest. How many professors of gospel doctrine are neither hot nor cold; except as they are indifferent in needful matters, and hot and fiery in disputes about things of lesser moment! "

ppl who r luke warm arent christians. theyre practicers of lawlesness
