About a year and a half ago, I very badly wronged my boyfriend, so much so that it caused us to break up. It was probably better for both of us that we broke up, but we were working really hard to reconcile and stay friends. It was going well until his new girlfriend told him that I was not a good Christian and that I was ruining his spirituality. I was so hurt after that that I stopped going to church for many months. I am back now, but feel so uncomfortable. I feel unworthy and like I shouldn't even try to connect with God because I will never be worthy anyways. This is all made harder by the fact that my (ex)boyfriend is the one who brought me to Christ in the first place, so he was always sort of my "go-to" person when I had questions and I always trusted what he said. Now that he is telling me that I am evil (he even insinuated that there is no way to save me, so I shouldn't even try), I just don't know what to do. I really wanted to maintain my relationship with my ex, but most importantly, I want to maintain a relationship with God. I am so confused.

CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Well, simply put..
Jesus > others.
So priority wise, if you intend to honestly maintain a relationship with God, your better off having a relationship with God directly rather than through anyone else, especially if your ex is spouting such unbiblical junk.

Exactly what explodingboy said. Dear, I don't know what you did to wrong your boyfriend, but GOD LOVES YOU. He really does, and He sent His son to die for you to prove it and to make it so you could come home to Him one day.
Your ex should never tell you there is no hope. There's hope for everyone, should they choose to accept Christ and live in his teachings. Your relationship with God is more important than anything he says. Pursue Him, love Him, talk to Him. He will help you through this time in your life.
"To him all the prophets bear witness that everyone who believes in him receives forgiveness of sins through his name.” Acts 10:43
I would stop associating yourself with people who bring you down in your walk with God and find a church or group that lifts you up and encourages you instead.

When you break up with a boyfriend/girlfriend, your relationship with him/her will never be the same....I'm not sure why he is saying what he is saying about you, but it would be better if you stay away from him...Your relationship with God is your number one priority....seek other people in your church who will pray for you and care for you and encourage you in your walk....

Build a relationship with God first, because people are people. One of the most difficult things that new christians (and many times mature christians) have to face, is the reality that christians arn't God and will hurt you. That shouldn't come as a shock, but it often does.
