I am a new Christian ( ie one year been one) and I have met so many new friends in Christ, Many of their beliefs are different but many are the same.
I was scared at first because i didn't think that I would be accepted but I was
I asked about their faith and they asked about me ,,,it soon became that who i was just me and the love of Christ brought us together. One friend is a Calvinist,,,the other a Charismatic Christian,,and a Pentecostal Minister and an Anglican Minister ,I was so blessed to see them say how much they love being my friend, they prayed with me, They never told me I needed to do this or that and make me feel guilty. They knew me as the Happy Suzi and they saw how happy and full of Spirit i was, and then I saw the same in all of them. We all have differences that sometimes we may not understand the differences, But above all ...beyond who we love....what denomination we are....we look over all these differences and see eachother as friends and no longer scared of eachother. So if anyone needs a friend,,,,don't be afraid,,some things i may not understand but explain to me...and vice versa.you may gain a special new friend.<3


God Bless <3 <3

Hi Suzi! Welcome, and I pray that God will speak to you and through you using your friendships. You've found more wisdom about our unity in Christ than many long-time Christians! We focus too much on our differences, thank you for reminding us that we are all the same in God's eyes. You're a blessing!
