..Yeah, tonight, I broke up with my boyfriend, but I wasn't prepared for some of the things that would happen. When I broke up with him, he was ok with it..then we got into a debate about sexual relations, and why I thought it was wrong..then just a few minutes ago, he blew up completely, told me that he was glad he didn't 'have' to be Christian anymore, I was the only reason he was..and that now he didn't have to pretend. He then ended it with a rather rude curse towards my Lord. I feel that I was this boy's stumbling block because I broke up with him. Is that the case? Be truthful, please? God bless.

him saying that he Christian only because of you...means that he wasn't really a Christian to begin with...he seems to have had ulterior motives...being Christian-like to get somtin from you. :| A good tree bears good fruit, a bad tree, bad fruit, so be glad that God has shown you his true colors.

shake the dust off your feet, move on, and keep your distance from him.

God will certainly bless you for the stand on abstinence that you made! :hug:

Sweet Shalom of God to you LML!

You were not a stumbling block to him. He wasn't sincere. You cannot be expected to stay in a relationship that you don't feel is right. If he was sincere about his relationship with the Lord, then your breaking up with him wouldn't be cause for him to curse the Lord. Let him go. Pray for him, but realize that it is not your job to make him a devoted Christian. You are called to witness, not to make spiritual decisions for others. It sounds to me like it's a blessing that he will be out of your life. God bless you.

Absolutely not. You weren't his stumbling block. He hasn't had a 'real' relationship with Christ if he says he was only a Christian because of you.

Imagine this, in a few weeks he starts to miss God, and this time seeks a real relationship with Christ. He's filled with the spirit and is truely forgiven. Pray for that to happen.

God Bless.

you were not a stumbling block to him, He was just saying he was a christian to get things from you, It might not seem like it now but it was good that you let each other go, it might hurt now, but at least you got to see his true colors before anything happen that you might later regret. Pray about what happen and move on . take care and God bless ya.

If I may say, he was just pretending to be a Christian to be with you. Saying what you want to hear, so you would want to be with him. It was all fake, he had no real realtionship with God.

He was lying to you and deceiving you all along and only in the end did he tell you the truth about himself.

You did nothing wrong. I know it all still hurts, but you did not mislead him or make it harder for him to come to God. Be glad that you stood your ground and came to see who he really was. As hard as it may be right now, thank God for getting you out of this relationship.
