Answer 1

This is the correct way of handling of an enemy:

Mat 5:43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
Mat 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Mat 5:45 That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
Mat 5:46 For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
Mat 5:47 And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
Mat 5:48 Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

People are people, they believe what they want to believe. If she thinks her art is good, then maybe it is, to her. Insulting someones art is just rude. Just because you don't like it doesn't make it bad, just means its not your style. As for lying, that's not just a hypocritical christian thing, its a hypocritcal human thing. The truth is christians should not lie, but unfortunately, none of us is perfect, and quite a few do have a tendency to lie. You need to tell her to take the plank out of her own eye before she runs around preaching to others. The only time I listen to someone preach is at church, anywhere else I don't have the patience for it. Tell her you aren't gonna listen to her because she doesn't practice what she preaches, so she needs to zip it until she works on her own problems.

Answer 3

I am not a christian but, you are dealing with an idiot, self conscious, low self esteem, moron, who believes that because someone told her something about herself that now she can do no wrong. She will always be like that and you can't change her. It would seem that she is not a friend and if so, just ignore her. She has so many issues, and Christianity has nothing to do with it. It is her excuse for acting like that. She is a jerk but believes that she is better than everyone else. Treat her like she deserves to be treated. And feel sorry for her because she won't go very far in life treating people like that. And by the way, yes you are lazy you shorten a word like are to "r"? LOL

Answer 4

First, I am happy to see someone who actually knows what a hypocrite is. Too many people think that a 'hypocrite' is somebody who tries to do good but fails. This friend of yours sounds like a true hypocrite - somebody who claims to do good, acts self-righteous while doing evil, and then lies about the whole thing.

Second, my advice is stay as far away from her as possible. If she is a prominant member of a local religious community, avoid that community as well.

Answer 5

. Being a hypocrite is not exclusively limited to Christians. But since you have singled them out, I would suggest to you that you remind them of their convictions. Example: Is this the same story/answer you would give to JESUS or if GOD sees everything you do and hears everything you say including thoughts would HE hear truth in your answer? People who profess to be Christian yet obviously are not are more likely to be Pharisees(the ones in church who pray the loudest, have the most and give the least). In other words they talk the talk but do not walk the walk. True Christians are not perfect we are just forgiven and must seek that forgiveness, mercy and grace on a daily basis.

In regards to your friends art, no one wants to be told that what they have created is not worthy of praise. It may make more of an impression to say to her/him ...I don't particularly care for your work but I am not an art enthusiast maybe you should ask someone with knowledge of art who can help you to create better art that appeals to more people. You have still told her you do not appreciate her art but you have done it in a non threatening way and you have suggested a way to seek improvement. This approach works with most situations.

Answer 6

the only way to expose hypocrisy is with the truth.....

always use the truth - with proof - to contradict what she says...for example...if her art is bad...then have a professional give an evaluation...i can see why this would hurt her feelings....to say her art is bad....so try to be nice about it

i do not think being a bad artist will put someone in hell...

if she is your friend, then find things that will help her self esteem....something she is actually good at....

also, if on any religious issues, you would have to find the right scripture in the bible to show any errors in thinking...this means you would have to read the bible yourself to get your argument backed up by scripture.

Answer 7

First off, I have never in my life met a person who is not a hypocrite in some way!

Second, being a Christian does not make you perfect. Your still human with many human flaws. Being a Christian makes you forgiven for those flaws and should make you at least slightly a better person than you were before. It sounds like your friend is human, unwise, and out of touch with how she really is.

Its just as hypocritical of you to say she is your friend but then be on here bad mouthing her. It is also just as wrong for you to expect her to be perfect when you yourself are not perfect.

If you really don't like these things in her, and you really don't like her being a Christian than are you really her friend. She needs to ask herself this also.

Answer 8

If you are for sure she is like that, just stay away from her. People like that are the ones who give those who do love Christ a bad name, not to mention Christianity in a whole. All they do is provide fuel for the fire for the ones who bash Christians. We are NOT all the same believe me. I just stay away from them as you cannot let them know what they are doing wrong as their mind is already made up as to how they feel and are. I will not Witness to a Brick Wall as it would amount to the same thing. They are the ONLY one who has to answer for them self on Judgment Day

Answer 9

Just laugh at it and write it off. She's not going to change unless life drops her on her butt. Focus on being the best person you can be and maybe become an example for others as well as shaming these hypocrites.

Answer 10

I wouldn't be too judgemental about her ("burn in hell" etc.); all of us have different relationships with reality, and hers is evidently more tenuous than most. It is nothing to do with what religion she belongs to; it's a personality disorder. First, don't trust her one bit; secondly, if you're not influencing her postively and she's influencing you negatively, try to distance yourself. Someone who can't accept reality and who tries to manipulate reality can be more dangerous than you know. If she insulates herself from all sense of guilt, there is no limit to what harm she could do to others who let her into their lives.

I don't want to give too many personal examples, but here's one: someone I know let a "friend" stay over because she said she was temporarily in need of somewhere to stay. He even asked if he could take her along when he babysat our kids, so she wouldn't be bored (we said no). Finally he realised she was just intending to live long-term rent-free and unemployed at his expense, and asked her to move out (she had parents who were willing to support her). She came at him, in his own house, with a bread knife. He should probably consider himself lucky she didn't get his bank details too. We were all scared for him, in case she tried something about being a cohabitant (which she wasn't) and sued for half the value of his house or something...
