-- but of corse everone needs advice that is y they post


hear is the delelema ,
it has been going on for like 5 years , my parrents wont let me go to wendsday church or any spichle Church events , i have been going to church for 5 years and onky for the last 2 monts have i been able to make any socioal bonds with some of the congration :cry: .
at first i was realy angry at this ( some times they would not even let me go to church - im not alowed to wach T.B.N nither for no reason )

i disobeyed my parrents once and went to wed church a long time ago for my punishment they made me work my but of and for the rest of the scholl year i had to speend 1 hr running on a small track in our back yard everday
for the rest of the school year ( weekens too AND the 2nd sesmester had only began , also currently i was grounded for a week for trying to call a riligious dude on the phone late at night 12:00 or so i was desptrate then ) i did the punishemt chearfullly to show God that i was obedant to him , for bye obeying ur parrents u Show God that we will be obedant too . - loved God then SO much :prayer: even if i was grounded that is no reason to keep ur child ( 14 then) from Church .

after that did did not try ot offer much restance to my parretns Consering My faith i just tryied to keep it down now i want Jesus a lot agen and i want to break free from my parrents , sadly i have applied for the Job i wanted and so far i dont think that God wants me to work at H-E-B for a wile i did , but it dose not matter I am willing to live under a brige Just to get Closer to Him - im shur u would under stand .

i know That God puts us in our place for what ever reason and to runn would casue many more problems ( the only way to lose IN Jesus is to give up kinda thing ) .

well waht would u do in my place ? stay alive and Live a little on the side or Live to die for the One reason we r all alive to day ? im 19 now

The most significant thing you mentioned is that your 19.You probably didn't notice it but you became an adult over a year ago.That should send a signal to your biological clock that it's now time to crawl out of your nest and begin to fly.Even better,trying soaring like an eagle!Jesus taught us that those who leave their parents to serve Him will receive a special reward in heaven.So your first step should be to find a job so you can support yourself.There are Christian service employment agencies you can find on the internet.(Intercristo is the largest)There are even missionary organizations that train teenagers for overseas work.So you really have no excuse to have your faith or service to God hindered any more.TAKE UP YOUR CROSS,LEAVE HOME AND FOLLOW HIM.Hey that sounds really good.You now have a new motto to use.

i'm venturing in warily here but wanted to offer some advice that you may or may not already know and not to make a debate or anything.
while the Bible does say to honor your parents, if they are going against God's will, and surely His will is for to congregate with your bretheren then you need to follow God's will. just my thoughts:) backing out now.

An adult can leave home. Your parents could call the police, but the police wouldn't do anything because you have the legal right to leave home. The police would only do something if there were reason to believe you were a crime victim or something like that. If you let your parents know you're choosing to leave home, the police wouldn't do anything. The police have to follow the law.

Now, if you do decide to leave home, it would honor your parents to do this respectfully. Tell them where you're going. Thank them for providing for you for 19 years. Do everything you can to remain on good terms with them. If you're going to live nearby, you might even offer to come mow their lawn once a week, or do something else nice for them to help keep in touch.

what a bout the whole we r put where we r for reason thing ?
boy just spliting maks me think hard , i already know what to take (my bible for one ) .

That's a good question to think about. WRT your parents, for what reason do you think you were put in their house? OTOH, just because you were put there by God doesn't mean God doesn't want you to ever leave.

I have a 19 yo son who still lives at home. When he was 17, we had a talk, where I told him the terms on which he would be allowed to continue living at home after his HS graduation. I gave him options - work, go to college, join a mission organization, etc. I also told him some options he did not have. He would not be allowed to stay home, sit at his computer an ddo nothing productive. If he wasn't a full-time student making progress toward a degree, he would have to pay rent. He also would have to act like a responsible adult member of the household, meaning sharing in the household chores in an adult way - doing what he saw that needed to be done. IMHO, an adult child is an adult, and should have an adult relationship with his/her parents.

I also, when he was younger and we had conflicts, used to tell him, "God made parents and teenagers have conflict so you would be motivated to move out and support yourself when you're old enough." It sounds to me like you're old enough and motivated. Get a job and show your parents you can take care of yourself, but at teh same time, continue to love and respect them.

1.) Are you still in high school? If so, finish first, it's only a few more months.
2.) Are you attending a church presently? If so, talk to your pastor and tell him about your situation, he may be able to help you find a job and maybe bible college later.
3.) Pay attention in your english class, and take any available courses at school or at a local community college. Bible college takes a lot of reading and writing.

Absolutely not. Leave on good terms if at all possible. You must put God ahead of family, but you must still respect your parents.

i will take ur advice ill also vote for u , the only problem i have now is that i need a job :cry: i dont wana work at mcdonolds ! :cry: :D -ahhh welll

When it's your first job, you can't be too picky ;)
I started out at a temp agency and worked my way up to Kmart :D
I'm an engineer now, but I had my share of unpleasant jobs.

Talk to your pastor, maybe the church needs a new janitor ;)
