Okay so this morning July17th i wake up and log on facebook like i usually do see whats going on in this world. I scroll down my feed and see a mates picture titled "Burning Bible, swag." My mate and it looks like his friend has built a fire and burned a bible. I commented on it saying thats "F#*#* up man. I dont care if i lose a friendship over this or something along those lines but i dont want to be like how dare you blah blah blah and be 1 of those silly hateful Christians. Any ideas on what i should do here.
Something thats really offended me, doesnt happen easily.

You will see more things like this as time progresses. Hopefully you can see the times we are actually living in my friend. What we thought was good, or who we thought were friends will be shown to be enemies, because anyone who is an enemy of God is an enemy of mine. Not that I treat them as enemies, but in love I treat them as friends.
You have good reason to be offended. But we need to wake up out of sleep and not be lulled to sleep by this world.
May Jesus bless you.

Okay so this is what happened. My mate christian fella had a big night it seemed got pretty drunk and vomited on this guys carpet and urinated on the floor and supposedly was making fun of him. The guy who ended up burning the bible was drunk as well and he got in the car and drove home. When he got home he hit his neighbours car. With all the vent up frustration he went to his mates bag which had all his belongings in it*including the bible* and burnt it. I am unsure if he intentionally burnt it or he was unaware people dont think when they are drunk. But it was pretty interesting to see that the Bible was placed on top of the pile of ashes as if it was burnt last.......tricky situation
I understand your situation bro... And I know that you are pretty angry at that... We often let our anger lead us to sin, instead of choosing to surrender our anger to God, and putting those people in prayer, i can't give you the do's and don't's but I advise you to surrender all anger and hurt before they become burdens, I've been in your shoes before, so just let the Holy Spirit have His way in you and let God be the avenger! God bless you bro
You can't do anything about it.I understand you so well.I used to have a crew.We used to have night rides by bikes together.And they don't believe in God.They do crazy stuffs.Like-they go to the church - just to take horrible pictures there and make fun about christianity.
All you can do is pray for your friend. That is all.

Sorry if this offends you, but let us be realistic.. I think you should mind your business.lol.. It's not your bible and there is nothing you can do about that.. The only thing you can do is PRAY FOR HIM...Coz he is commiting eternal sucide and he doesn't know it.lol... But if you can't do this simple thing..
THEN LET EVERYBODY LEAVE EVERYBODY ALONE :~)

The reason people do these wicked things when they are intoxicated is because evil spirits are present. Intoxication and drunkeness and revelry are all done by demons. So this is not so strange, as anyone who involves themselves in it expose themselves to demons. The Holy Spirit would not make fun of Christianity. This is why if a person is battling addiction they need to be filled with the Holy Spirit, or maybe even have a demon cast out.
May Jesus bless you.

I put up with things I don't agree with from my friends, because, you know, you can only do so much. But they all know that my religion is the one thing you do not mess with and let me find out about. I don't get angry and yell, or try to get them back for it. But it's the quickest way to lose my friendship. I'm very clear on that.
You shouldn't get angry, of argue over it. Tell them how you feel, straight forward. Either they'll learn to have respect for something that means so much to you, or it's friendship you don't really need.

Just to let you guys know, I never messaged the person who did this and i wont bring it up for a long time. Im australian i barely get offended but yeah as i said this just gave me 'righteous anger' It makes me sad as i thought this mate might soon come to Christ, he still probably will. Just need prayer.
