Christians You Don't Particularly Like

[stevehut]

For me, unless the Lord specifically leads me to them, I stay away as much as possible!!!!

Most people here don't like the doctrine he preaches. There are others with false doctrine-baptists, methodists,catholics, charismatics, presbyterians, ect...but for some reason-the so called "faith" teachers really bring out the horns on some people.

Well, I have that situation at school. You'd think we'd stick together with the few Christians at my school, but none of us like each other.

I try being as nice to them as human possible, but I won't take being pushed around or talked about. When I get ticked off I pray to God "just shut my mouth or let me rant..." haha

I got into a fist fight with one of them.. she hit me first.. and I wasn't gonna stand there and be hit.. I tried walking away and was cornered.. no way out of it.. so I hit back and walked away..

But I have a tendency to get nasty when they are ticking me off.. but I just try to let God control it all.. and He will find His way of taking care of it.

Was that for my question about Copeland? Tell me more...

[Nicks Girl]

It's really hard to be around people you don't enjoy, or that get under your skin.

I would say it's not a sin to have feelings like that. I think it's how you respond to those sorts of feelings. I don't think you should talk about those people, or mention their names. It's best just to ignore the things that annoy you...

That's what I do..Most of the time

You can disagree with what people say, etc, or their doctrines and beliefs, that's not a sin.

What a great idea for a thread, Calamity!! You're right, we all have to deal with situations like these, and it can be pretty tough stuff! I guess I'll just have to jump on the band wagon with everyone else, and say that I mostly just try to stay away from them. That keeps me from saying something "in the flesh" that I know I'll regret later, whether I'm right or wrong. But there are those times and people that it's impossible to stay away from all the time, how do some of you handle situations where you're "pinned against the wall"? Please answer without naming names.

[Guest Calamity]

Is this wrong? How have you handled situations with people like that. I know praying for them is good, but physically, in everyday life, how do you handle it?

Yes, it is wrong to judge or hold a grudge. Always has been, always will be.

Kill them with kindness. Have them over for dinner at your home. Win them over. You don't have to agree on everything, or win every argument.

Holding a grudge isn't really what I'm talking about. There's no argument or anything gong on, LOL, because that person will not even acknowlege my presence, much less talk to me. Being kind and nice to them is right. I do that. The particular situation I'm in, though, the person totally shuns me, and it is impossible to talk with them, because they act like I do not exist if we are at the same place at the same time. This is hard to avoid totally, because it is in the family. For over a year now, I"ve been acting like everything is fine, being nice to this person and watching them ignore me, turn away from me, walk away from me, leave the room I"m in, etc. The thing is, all I can think of that caused it, is that we left the church they still attend! Period. I did not do anything to them.

As to the Copeland question, that is a totally different subject, and would be better in a different thread on that subject. All I'll say here though, is as far as I know, from what I've read that Copeland and the others like him have said and taught, is that they are teaching a different gospel, and a different Jesus. Totally wrong.

=Holding a grudge isn't really what I'm talking about.

Did you notice my suggestion?

I happen to disagree with your assessment of the situation. But in any event, that's the solution.

-I have couple of so called christians that I dont like. And its not them but their doctrines that I hate.

One of the biggest ones is

Benny Hinn

Kenneth Copeland

and many more of the false faith teachers.

-HEYYYYYYYYYY SON--BROTHER--FRENN--PAL--BUDDY----YA KNOW--i think I have

-been UNkind to you on a few occasions---possibly even hit yuse wiyth a PIE or

-TWO---BUT--ole-frenn--buddy--pal--Brother of miyne---I REPENS-& beggs yo fogiyvenesses-

-Another Brother has "SEEN"the heretical teachings of false-prophets--false-teachers---SON-YOU will find that there are SEVERAL on these boards that have been"delivered"out of this cult of false teachers---

-As to the Copeland question, that is a totally different subject, and would be better in a different thread on that subject. All I'll say here though, is as far as I know, from what I've read that Copeland and the others like him have said and taught, is that they are teaching a different gospel, and a different Jesus. Totally wrong.

-RIGHT ON SIS--FEAR THEM NOT--

-.but for some reason-the so called "faith" teachers really bring out the horns on some people.

-uhhhhh??{waitingforhim}"IF" YOU mean that the {bringing out the horns on some

-people}is intended to "chastize"?? some-people??WELL, YUPP I AM ONE OF "

-"THOSE PEOPLE"& I AINT GONNA BE CORRECTED??-CHASTIZED??or ANYTHING

-ELSE by"ANYONE" that has NOT sat under "those heretics"& their FALSE-

-DOCTRINES--FALSE TEACHINGS--& DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING

-ABOUT but just LOVE to point out what they percieve as WRONG by those that are

-EXPOSING -these liars--false-prophets--false-teachers---SO it would probably be

-a lot better for the"UNLEARNED"to just sit quietly by{on subjects they know

-ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about}and to be "thought"or percieved as "IGNORANT"

-than to open their "IGNORANT"mouthes & remove ALL doubt-----

Ok man, you've called them out! You better be right.

If not, then you are touching God's annointed. Remember King David murdered a man and stole his wife!! Yet to God, he was a man after his own heart!!!!

Scary stuff!!!! 

-007--LITTLE BROTHER---because of your tender age I am not inclined to go into a

-long discourse about copeland--hinn-& ALL the rest on tbn,but just suffice it to

-say that Patsy & I sat under--subscribed to & studied under ALL of these

-HERETICS--FALSE-TEACHERS--FALSE-PROPHETS--BUT PRAISE THE LORD JESUS-

-YESHUA--HE EXPOSED THESE FALSE TEACHERS TO US--DELIVERED US OUT OF

-THE FALSE-TEACHINGS these people proclaim--& for FIVE-5--YEARS PATSY & I

-were in a wilderness{spiritually-speaking}until WE were led to Worthy-Boards &

-were -TAUGHT--prayed out of those false-teachings--false-doctrines by the

-Brothers & sisters on these boards & IF you look around YOU will FIND many

-MORE that were DELIVERED out of the clutches of those HERETICS--& I for one

-have sat down--prayed & counted the cost of the WORDS I speak out about &

-against copeland--hinn-& ALL the rest of those on tbn--THE COST IS THIS:those

-people ARE-liars--false-prophets--false-teachers & they are NOT OF GOD--AT

-least NOT the ONE TRUE GOD that JESUS-YESHUA--THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF

-GOD-SPOKE OF--the jesus "THEY" preach--teach-praise IS NOT THE ONLY

-BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD--THE FIRST BEGOTTEN FROM THE DEAD--the cost is:SO

-very many are being led out of this cult & their{our}souls have been delivered

-from HELL-----007--Don't you Think WE KNOW what we are talking about??--

-THE phrase{touch not GOD'S anointed--& do my prophets no harm}has been & is

-being USED by THOSE false-teachers to intimidate--scare & just purely frighten &

-control GOD'S PEOPLE--I can ALMOST guarantee that every time those clowns

-are on tv they quote those verses of scripture at least TWICE on every broadcast..

-SO 007----WE do KNOW what WE are talking about in this case-& would NOT make

-the statements we have made "IF" there was ONE little iota of DOUBT in those

-statements about copeland--hinn & the rest----

-SORRY CALAM---BUT since these clowns were mentioned I had to reply--

-NOW BACK TO OUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING--

[Guest Calamity]

Well, steve, I'm glad you have the situation I'm talking about properly assessed. I still don't know how to invite someone for dinner when that someone will not acknowledge that you said a word when you attempt to talk to them. In fact, they do not acknowledge that I even exist, while I'm there. It would be akin to inviting a rock to dinner, as to the type of response (none), that there would be. The point I was trying to make is that every time I'm around this person, I have always been nice, friendly, polite, and the whole nine yards. It hasn't mattered.
