Outcasts

[SonicBOOM]

I am an "outcast" to some people at my church, they find out that I like to drink, smoke, party, have sex and all of that other stuff and they dont take it well.I guess I dont blame them, thats one of the reasons why I dont go to church anymore. Everybody tells me that God looks at who you are on the inside, if thats true then why should they or anyone else judge me? Its none of there business.

though I don't know your exprence, churches often seek to grow and better you much like Jesus prunes a branch. i know a girl who claims that she is judged by Christains for the doing the same things..... i know the situation though. in this girls' life the pastor was showing concern for the girl [thats his job after-all] and she kind of threw out of proportion and never went back. There's sins even i deal with that the pastors will try to point out to me. their not judging me... their simply trying to better me as a person as I'm sure God would wanna do as well.

I picked the last one, even though I'm pretty much a loner. I'm not so introverted that I feel awkward talking to people, I'm capable of being social, I just don't have a bunch of friends, I live on my own, at work I pretty much stick to myself. So no, I'm not an outcast per se... I guess I'm just a loner by choice/personality.

Thankfully my pastor dosent judge me at all, he is one of my best friends. I recently got out of the hospital, the reason why I went made some people look down on me which is another reason why I wont go back.

Thats alright, it's not you're fault. I dont think church's should look down on people for what they do. Everybody tell's me that God looks at you for who you are on the inside, if thats true then why do people always judge me in and out of church? It confuses me.
