not being acknowledged

[letsbefriends]

the fact that I had not been acknowledged by other Christians and others have made me feel like I was never accepted by Christ. I felt that way. the very first day when I entered church I came home and I was upset. I knew something was wrong. I had never intended to be his disciple and he had never wanted me to be his servant. In fact even after becoming one I had not been very happy. rejection from Christians exemplify that.

Christians are humans, not God. Humans are cruel, God is not. God is loving and forgiving. When I became a Christian, I attended a church that greeted me rudely and made me feel unacknowledged. I then when searching for other churches, I attended another one and now it is my home. Very polite and friendly. Just because you had one bad experience, doesn't mean every experience will be bad. When finding a church, you must go to several to find your church home. God didn't promise us that if we follow him we will be happy. When I became a Christian, nothing much changed. I began to keep a prayer list with the date of my prayers. Each and every prayer on that list have been answered. I have been blessed by God.

God wants everyone to believe and follow Him and His Word. So he does want you to be His servant.

for me all I care about is self-centeredness, I don't seem to want to have a relationship with him. I just want to have my porn and masturbation gotten rid of and that would be the end of it. that was my plan. I was considering apostasy.

even Christians sometimes don't acknowledge me. like one tiem I told this one teacher who just so happened to be Christian about how I was doing this bible study thing with a group and she looked at me as if I had no access to the bible, as if I had never read the bible on account of my ethnicity. the look communicated a message saying you don't deserve to be and you never were, so get out. I don't know guess how I interpreted that made it so bad.

You don't want to do that. You will go to hell which you will deeply regret. I used to be pagan and care all about myself. I was a witch and cast spells for myself. But I am so happy that I found God after those two years. You do not want to go to hell. Find God, and you will be saved and blessed. Trust me. Turning your back on him will be your biggest mistake.

Those people are called Christians who don't act Christian-like. Ignore those people. They are not worth bringing you down.

You need to change your motives, then. Jesus died and God sent him to die so that we can be saved. He sacrificed his life for us, that's how much God and Jesus both loved the world and everything in it, especially us humans. To me, that's more love and loyalty to me than I've gotten from most people that I've been around, from people and family. I'd want more than just a relationship where he just drops everything that I want to me.

yeah but how? i have motives all the time, to be honest. i feel like unless it benefits me i will not do it. just like being friends with someone. If they're going to rein in on me every now and then then i won't be friends with them. friendship is supposed to be all about being friendly, to me. i have never had a real friend in life so i have no idea what being friends with someone is like.
