Ok, I felt like I had to make a prayer request. Yesterday I was talking to a non-christian friend who smokes weed, everything was fine until I told him I was christian. We were talking and joking and all but I started to feel a bitterness from his side, he started making jokes about my faith and suddenly he was attacking religion in general and my faith. He even told me he prefered to burn in hell than burn in this life, and that weed gives him the happiness he needs. At one point he thought I was the one offending him and got even weirder and scary. He made a lot of offensive remarks about my faith that I didn't even feel I was talking to my friend no more, I just felt bitterness, anger and pain .:(
Please pray for him,pray that the Lord heals his wounds and touch his heart. Thank you.

Oh hun this happens all the time really. I was just in a chat room site not this site and a person attcked me he kept saying he didnt beleive in christ anything and he just attacking everyone. Its hard when friends dont understand you or try too unsult us dont feel bad. Instead just pray for them you know I have friends all diff denominations and all and I respect all of them and all and they respect me so yeah. we shall pray for thos who try too insult us or deny theres a christ really.

I will pray for him, but you need to guard against anger (Matthew 5:22) I get angry at people all the time and I pray for patience.

There's no sense getting angry at a non-Christian because they can't help the way the are: they are lost, and until the Father draws them, they are bent towards sin and offense. Take heart! Pray for him feverently -- and the anger will melt.

The world will always hate Christians, my dear. Jesus knew about this. You can pray for your friend but you can't make him change. He must want to change his ways. God bless.
