I just can't do it anymore. I go to bible study and we talk about the little evils that people struggle with every day. You would think, I would benefit from a women's bible study about "The Armor of God". But it very hard to care about the study and about all the little struggles we normies deal with when so much true evil is in the world. I also LOATH zoom. I want to do things in person and I just can't seem to get into a distance bible study.
I want to talk about satanists murdering babies. I want to talk about how Covid is a lie instead of pretending to be concerned about people catching a cold. And yes God forgive me I have lost my empathy for them. She asked me why I didn't continue and what I focusing my time on. And I told her about murdering babies and drinking their blood. I told her about Satanist in powerful positions.
She insisted that she had looked into that decades ago and knew all about it and that she could not deal with it so decided to do focus on the people around her and her life and to not deal with the stresses of these things. I get that. I understand that. And I can't do that right now. I just hung up on her. All she did was convince me I should not go and she was trying to do just the opposite.
The fact is that she is RIGHT! There is nothing we can do. It is all in Gods hands so I really should be going to that study and serving my neighbors. I just can't right now.
Basically ghosted my Bible study for this reason.
You're not alone.
the reason it perpetuates is because you, like op, and other, opt for passive "ghosting" instead of confronting them head-on.
You know what ..you're right. Ive been excommunicated by family and friends so I'm pretty much traumatized. Jesus would have us tell the truth in love though.
Jesus literally attacked money changers in the temple.
believing He was some sort of pacifist is perhaps one of the most detrimental tendencies of Christians today.
truth in love, surely, but tough love.
Choosing your battles can be difficult. Sometimes, you dont know how even one sentence can be a seed needed in someone's life.. I was unable to reach some people. They want to live in fear and I can't reach them. They have been influencing other people I know. I took it upon myself to directly call the other people and talk to them about my vaccine concerns and asked if I could send info. I was able to express love and concern and encouragement towards fully informing themselves. I send a video. After that, it's out of my hands. I still haven't heard their decision.
