Question

i asked this because im a christian and i have friends with various back grounds and religion one of the is a witch but prefers to be called a wicca(i mess with her alot about that) and when some people find out i talk to her they call me a fake christian or poser. But im not, its just that i dont judge people because of what they r but who they r on the inside. i dont really like to sterotype. we each have the will and power to be who we want and in my opinion no one should judge or sterotype

U can't blaim it on human nature its just an excuse

Answer 1

I see what you mean. The bible says not to judge people. There is no problem with talking to people who are differant or have differant ideas. Just make sure you are strong in your faith, and it could be an opportunity to witness to her. Just realize Wicca is the wrong way, and far from where God wants us to be. Maybe try and help her see where she has gone wrong.

Answer 2

Do you want to be friends with a rapist or murderer ? I hope the answer is no. Although if someone has done something in the past and is truly reformed, then I could understand being friends with them . I don't wish you to hate your 'friend', but I think you're missing something here. Or maybe you're using the word 'friend' loosely. You could be my best friend, and if you start doing harmful things to yourself or others, I'm gonna tell you about it. And if you don't change your ways, then you're not my best friend anymore . And you're not really my friend anymore either . Having 'friends' who live wrong(notice I didn't say 'do wrong') can only have a negative effect on your life . People like to say " well, I'm strong enough in my beliefs, my 'friend' could never have a bad effect on meeeeeeee". Well that's .. .... .. .Just Not True.. . .We are only humans, Satan is much, much, stronger . Why do you think the Church doesn't allow a new priest to handle an exorcism ? Because Satan is stronger than us, and only a devout, very experienced priest would even be considered for the job . It's very admirable for you to feel this way, however, it's not good or healthy for you to not draw the line somewhere . Talk to your friend . Try to make sense to this friend . Then, draw the line. Thank you and God Bless.

Ok first let me start by saying no, i do not judge a person based on thier race, religion, or backround. That should and will be judged by God himself and only Him. I understand that you want to be a friend to this person who does not share the same faith as you but in all reality, what does that say about you. You say you only judje people from what's on the inside but it sounds to me ur friend is lost. Anyone who does not know who they are in Christ is lost. I am not putting any non Christian down but come on, think about this clearly, if you have your beliefs, don't you think hanging with someone who has opposite or far off beliefs will not be beneficial personally and spiritually.A lot of times Satan puts people in ur life to distract you from getting closer to God. And since he knows you are a caring person he can get you with this. Be careful of the influences around you and if you want to be a stronger person maybe you should only surround yourself with positive people know who they are.

Answer 4

Human nature being what it is, we tend to judge others in the light of what we are, what we would like to be, and for this reason everyone else is different, some in ways you envy .. hence we try to assure ourselves of a 'non event of our life' and ridicule or discriminate against those who have abilities, traits and characteristics That we envy.
At 65 I can confess to having discriminatory thoughts in the past, now I realise that people are people and I like some and I don't like some, there is no reason, I just don't like somethings I see in others that I hate about myself. Christians as with all religions preach tolerance, remember others have reasons for their thought processes as do you

Answer 5

You as a Christian are called to be "In the world but not of it".

It's okay for you to hang around with your wiccan friend, but be firm in your belief and live it everyday. Be open about what you think of her beliefs and at the same time, be vocal about yours.

You won't "convert" her. Christians are not called to "convert" people, but only to be witnesses and disciples.

Don't judge people. Only God has the authority to do that.

I do have to be honest, though. I do tend to judge people by their actions. I pray to God all the time for understanding, though.

God Bless.

Answer 6

Very forward thinking for this day and age. I'm a Wicca my children are not my youngest is Baptist and my oldest is still studying different beliefs.This causes issues for them on some levels but they have been raised to accept and be open minded. Your ability to not judge people is VERY rare and you should be very proud of yourself. Just ignore those who question or call you names some day they may be as enlightened as you are now.

Answer 7

faith- Wicca. Stereotypes contain us as Satanists and devil worshippers, flying on broomsticks, being previous hags with warts on our faces and having a cackling snigger, cooking issues inclusive of Eye Of Newt Soup,putting hexes on others, and a few different nonsensical problems with which none are actual.

Answer 8

I judge people by their looks. That's why I'd make a great juror in a legal court. I can tell if someone is guilty just be looking at them.

Answer 9

alot of people judge on race

Answer 10

I am a wiccan too,
And no, THOSE people are fake christian. Even though I am a wiccan I still follow God, and I still believe Jesus is God's son.

I just have a different path.
I don't judge in general, because God tells me not to.
So ask those who say you are a poser, Why they are so fake because they judge and pass vengance, what does the bible sa about that?
