What do you feel Christians should learn from the world of unbelievers?

many things. one of the biggest things that stand out right now is how not to ruin your life, wasting it away in sin.

I was thinking a bit more constructive and positive.

I learned that lesson on both sides. But now that we have that out of the way . . .

I think you mean "not to ruin," not "how not to." You just said that we can teach you how not to ruin your life.

You can't learn anything useful from a non-christian. Trent has the right idea.

Okie Dokie. Jesus said that the people of this age are wiser in their generation than the children of light(Luke 16:8)

The Lord gave me this verse when contemplating what to do for my future wife and children when I leave them to go be with Jesus. Further down the road, when God gives me an indication when I'm going to die, I'm going to see about taking out a term-insurance policy worth a lot of money to leave my wife and children so that they will be taken care of. Is that something you can learn from an unbeliever?

Not that many, I'm a lightweight, lol..

 

[trentlogain2]

at least you don't throw the stuff up. i was a lightweight and couldn't keep it in. i hated booze.

 

[MehGuy]

I throw up sometimes..

Not while drunk, but it can help one feel better in the morning if they just puke it out, lol.

Some of my friends say I'm a wuss for doing it, but I'm like.. why suffer if you don't have too..

and liquor before beer, all in the clear. beer before liquor, you'll never feel sicker.

Many things. Biggest of all ... what not to do in relationships.

I've mentioned this before, but just go to any non-Christian "relationship" forums. It's one disaster after another. And the poor advice given by people who haven't a clue. And validated by 99% of the other members. It's no wonder the world is in the mess it's in with its pervasive un-Godly mentality.

I think Christians should reflect and remember where believers come from, and remember what it's like to consider conversion to a faith whose members do little more than complain about how perverse and ungodly you are.

Sometimes I wish we could just get rid of the church and start over tbh.

I do. I think there is a lot to learn from them , their philosophies, the Culture which they endorse and follow, and their worldview including origins .

From having been an Unbelieving professed Atheist for at least 10 adult years....Ive learned a lot thru that experience from a sociological standpoint and the lure of needing to be Ones own Authority and never Owned by someone more important than Self.

Chasing after money and objects in life is an exercise in futility.

Wheaton's Law, which is something the grand majority of Christians can't even conceive (as demonstrated in this very thread).

We can learn a lot from nihilism and how it ruins a person.
