JoshlovesJesu, I wish I would have been as smart as you are at such a tender age of 15!! What you did not know is that there are not 1 but 2 schools we need to attend. lol The first school you are attending right now,a school to learn the world's ways. BUT!! IF!!! you are serious,then there is another school we attend,and this school lasts a life time,the only way we graduate is when Jesus takes us to his home.
As an Elder in the body of Christ Josh and being a true disciple,I will give you the steps along with scripture so you can see this for yourself! Step one of class,we first must learn to renew our minds.( Rom 12:1-2) What does this mean one may ask? It means we daily STAY everyday in God's Word! 2. We look as much as possible to be and stay led by HIS Holy Spirit.( Rom 8:11-16) ( 1 John 2:25-29) People can help, as long as they lead you to God's Word in there help!!
If someone tells you Jesus said, or did this or that,your response is show me chapter and verse! For if one says they know there Lord Jesus,they sure as heck should know his Word as well!! Because Jesus reminds us not to trust in man.( Psalm 118:8) and 3. And this is the hardest one at least it was for me. LOL One must learn to seperate there FEELING from the truth of God's Word!! I know!!!
This will take time,you are young with many emotions running through your body right now,I understand this Josh. But doing this now will help you greatly in your later life. And finally 4. Find a good Body of Christ,you will not find a perfect church,but no matter how young or how old we get we all need support! As you do these things and are faithful in them,that is key!! Being faithful! Jesus will show you much more as he has me. I am far from perfect myself!! However I am the most thankful person God ever created!!( 1 Thess 5:18)
Rather then complaining learn to be and stay thankful,for this is God's WILL!! This should get you started on the straight and narrow path few find,because few will use discipline on themselfs!!( 1 Cor 9:22-27) And stay away from judging others even though you may be correct in who or what you are judging.( Rom 2:1-5) Verse 4!! Help you mindset by thinking as much as you can upon what Jesus does each of us.( Phil 4:7-9) I sure do not have all the answer Josh but I sure can tell you how Jesus helped me gain his mindset! Blessing to you. I am still learning to!! I always will Josh.
