As a Christian, I've had other Christians do some pretty creepy crap lately. Is it a sign of the times? How do you deal with hate from other Christians that know YOU are a Christian also? I'm pretty stressed out.

I dont deal with it anymore, im no longer christian, I prayed for guidance, and the Creator doesnt want me to be christian. (im Pagan now with a hint of buddhism)
christians dont see other christians as one of thier own. that is part of the problem.

Yes I have too.
You just have to remember that they are human.
Christians can be mean just like any other person.
It's their problem. Walk on in faith, pray for them.
They'll either come back and appologize or you'll
have to use your discernment and realize that this
person is not walking in the same faith that you are.
Christian is a wide variety of folks.
A wide variety of fallible folks, just as every person
walking this earth is.

Christianity is the only Army that buries it's wounded. It is a sad commentary on Christ's Church !

Dear Friend,
We both know a true Christian would never act out of anything other than love for eachother. Christ taught us the most important part of the law
Matthew 22:36"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?" 37Jesus replied: " 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'[b] 38This is the first and greatest commandment. 39And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'[c] 40All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments."
Christians must always act out of love, and humility. If they do not, then they are not Christians.
And as to how to deal with it, extend the grace to them that God has given to you and forgive them.
Matthew 18:21Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?"
22Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.[f]
23"Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. 24As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand talents[g] was brought to him. 25Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt.
26"The servant fell on his knees before him. 'Be patient with me,' he begged, 'and I will pay back everything.' 27The servant's master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go.
28"But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii.[h] He grabbed him and began to choke him. 'Pay back what you owe me!' he demanded.
29"His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, 'Be patient with me, and I will pay you back.'
30"But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. 31When the other servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed and went and told their master everything that had happened.
32"Then the master called the servant in. 'You wicked servant,' he said, 'I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 33Shouldn't you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?' 34In anger his master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed.
35"This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart."
May the peace of the Lord God be with you
God Bless.

It was Prophesied - verse 9 answers your question
Matt 24: 4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.
9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

...relax... the Scripture is clear... "we" work out our own Salvation with fear and trembeling... take care of you and pray for them... If it's going on in the Church...get together with your Pastor...
