Being religious in todays world can sometimes be overwhelming. There are many prejudices in the world, that make people feel like their choice of religion is somehow punishing them. But keep in mind that religion is a good thing. When people are prejudice of you for your religion and your choice of beleifs, they only judge what they do not understand. A way to resolve this problem is sit down and talk with them about what your religion is about, you never know they may find it deeply interesting and may want to check out your church. So keep in open mind with these prejudice's, because it is not your fault you are getting judged by your beleif's, so do not beleive you are being punished for what you beleive in. Because with your religion, after you pass you will be greatly awarded in Heaven. The Bible says to spread the Word of God. What have you dont lately to keep your commitment with your religion. I am a Christian, and I believe in God. I have not come across prejudice towards me from my beleif, but I assume somewhere down the winding road of my life I will come cross it. Acknowledge what you believe, and stick with it, for you may be the next greatest person to spread the Word of God. Just think about it Missionaries go to far off countries to spread the Word of God and some are martyred for their belief. I think that when people use words to make you feel bad for your choice of religion it is just like being martyred only with words. So you are still a great person for sticking with your religion no matter what. For those of you who want to learn more about God look in your local phone and call a church, ask to sit down with the pastor and have him explain to you what our religion is about and what you can accomplish with it. Because you never know you could become the next Christian, and get done to you what you have done to other, but do not let this scare you away, because you will be greatly awarded in Heaven once you die, and everything bad that happened to you on Earth will be just a memory. « return. |
