You get new friends to play bridge with.  And quit crying over it.

Straight from the bible and through the mouth of my priest...  Forgive him.  But when to forgive him is entirely up to you.  Curse him until you are not mad at him but forgive him before you die.

you may want to seek out an anger management group and pass along the info to your friend. your friend may also benefit from talking to a therapist - clinical social worker, clinical psychologist, etc.

If he annoys you, the problem is in you. Deal with it. As a former friend, you should at least treat him with civility. Use "politeness" - do not backbite and gossip. Do not attempt to change his life for your convenience. That is not nice, much less "Christian."\nDeal with him as though he were a mildly amusing stranger. Evidently (since you used to be friends) you once found something attractive about his personality.

Yah, kick his ass. That will make him believe. Nothing like a Christian who is only a Christian because it got beat into him. That's why all Muslims are so spiteful of their "religion".

You can get up out of your chair right now and go to the nearest hospital emergency room any time of the day or night.  Tell them what you are feeling and they will listen carefully.  They have pills there that will work in about 20 minutes and will help you feel that you have back your self control.  You will be calm and you will be able then to think more clearly.  If you want to kill, then you are feeling angry.  They will help you talk about your anger and help you plan what to do since you are so angry.  Maybe you have a good reason to be angry.  Talking about it will help you to control it and find a better life.  If you think you are possesed then you must believe in bad spirits.  Whatever is your personal religion you can go to that place of worship for help to get rid of them.  You can do that tomorrow after you start taking the pills that help you have self control and peace from anger.  If you do not have a special religion, you will have time to find one.  Until then, try talking to the bad spirits about Jesus Christ saving you from them and sending them away.  You are smart enough to know that killing people is a major scary  bad idea, so get the help and the friends you need and deserve at the hospital emergency room.  Go right now.  And stop drinking alcohol or using drugs if you are doing that right now.  It will stop you from thinking clearly.

You did have a question, yes? \nI'm sorry you ran into some of the Christians that are still learning. Proves we're all human, doesn't it. Everyone continues to learn to not only talk the talk, but ti walk the walk. Some find it more difficult than others. Best thing to do when someone upsets you as badly as the Christians you're referring to, pray that the Lord will guide their ways. Don't condemn them.

Although I am not religous, my best friend is Christian.  And when I am in a rut, she always gives me the same advice.  Just believe.  Believe that things will get better.  Try to find something to hold on to, and begin praying again.  Try to find something you can join other than a church, or just surround yourself with really good friends and family.

I've never wanted to hit anyone...I've never been in a fight in my life, no one has ever hit me and I have hit no one..I think the best thing to do when you get upset is to go somewhere away from them and cool off then go back and talk about it with them..friends can drive you crazy at times and make you want to shake them and say what the heck is wrong with you but just be thankful for friendships even in the hard annoying times...

hate the sin but love the sinner\nhate evil\nhate broccolli\nhate mushrooms\nhate flat tires\nhate losing loved ones\nhate stupid questions that don't deserve an answer (obviously this question you asked is not one of them)\nhate it when people insult you just because you are a Christian who makes an effort to do good and please God. Why is that they never complain about crime in our country, or speak there rude comments about drug dealers and other drags on society???\nhate the thoughts of idiots, love the idiot d:O)

This was a little hard to follow, though I think I understand what is going on. There is obviously some bitterness going on; otherwise they wouldn't feel the need to insult this person. Show them I Corinthians 13, where it gives the characteristics of Christian love. And Philippians 4, where it speaks of thinking on "whatever is true, pure, right..." You shouldn't have to say much, the Holy Spirit will. Much prayer for wisdom on your part is necessary. James 1:8 says if we ask for wisdom, God will give it to us. Lastly, don't accuse them. Just tell them kindly that you felt that it may not be loving of them to do these things. Hope it goes well!

Oh now you have done your gunna make all the religious maniacs mad.  Don't question their faith man as that is not allowed, except when they stop you in the street and ask you to re-evaluate your beliefs and try and shove their religion down your throat, or when they send missionaries round the world disrupting savages (that's what they call em when they don't follow Christianity) belief's and ways of life's.......\n\nOh and by reading their comments by reading you crapy passages from the bible (made up book changed by men to control hummanity).\n\nTell me when you die and you find out you have been following the wrong religion your whole life and they send you to hell, what will you do then?

Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: \n                                Ephesians 4:26\n\n\ndon't walk around angry all the time.anger will eat you up inside \n\nIf you let it.\n\n[  For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: \n   But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses. ]\n                                                             Matthew 6:14-15

I am very sad that you are hurting so much. Some wounds are very deep and take a long time to heal. You deserve to be loved and cared for! I can't even imagine how much it must hurt to have someone you care about so much do that to you. I don't know if you believe in God, but I do and I believe that he can heal us. I believe that forgiveness is the key to overcoming your hurt. I know it is extremely difficult, but if you can try to push angry feelings away and forgive him for what he has done, you will feel better. I do not believe that finding someone else is the right solution. It is a way to cover or bury your pain, but not heal it. Pray for strength, don't be ashamed to cry, and turn to good friends for support. I will keep you in my prayers as well.

Tell the people that you may have hurt that you are truly sorry, make restitution if you can, ask the Lord for forgiveness. If that doesn't work talk to your preacher/minister about it.

Linda, Sweetie, one of the very FIRST things you need to learn as a Christian in Yahoo, is patience. You're gonna run into alot of these abusive comments, some people think they are being witty.  If they manage to get a rise out of you, they think they have somehow "proved" some sort of point.  I think they figure that Christians aren't supposed to get angry, or have hurt feelings, and when we react to such vicious comments, they can congratulate themselves that they have provoked us, and therefore, our God must not be real.\nWhen you really stop and think about it, they need our love and our pity much more than we need their approval.  Pray for them, but, don't let them push your buttons.\nGod bless you.
