Title: a false believer
Post by: Learning_disciple on February 23, 2004, 12:31:42 AM
Hi every one,

There is a certain person that I know of who claims to be a believer in Jesus Christ, but from the hate and unkindness I have seen from this person, I have serious doubts that she truly knows the Lord.
  I have known this person for the last few years and have seen first hand how she treats people. She "repents" in public for show, and then makes accusations about them in her group. She is very bitter and unforgiving of others, but expects to be treated as special because she is a "baby" Christian. she has been a babe in Christ for four years now and needs to grow up.
  I had a falling out with her a month ago, and now she is attacking me in her group and making out that she's the wounded one. What bothers me is the fact that her friends treat her as if she can do no wrong. They support her no matter what she does, even if it's to carry a grudge against someone.
   If you could pray for this person I would appreciate it. Please ask God to convict her of her sins so she will truly repent and seek His forgiveness and mercy. She knows a lot about theology, but it is mostly head knowledge. a lot of it never got into her heart.  Her initials are DJ.


Thank you.

Sorry for sounding to critical as it is not my place to judge who is saved and who isn't. I was just making an observation about the person I requested prayer for.
  She claims to be saved, but from what little fruit of the Spirit I have seen, it is very doubtful that she is saved. from what I have seen, and her lack of forgiveness toward others it isn't too hard to understand why I doubt the sincerity of her confession of faith. She knows a lot about theology and religious matters, but most of it is just a front to impress her friends. Please pray that God would show others the truth about her so she can stop playing games and get right with Him.

Thanks

Learning,

It is very hard to be quiet when we are concerned about a friends soul.  We do all learn at a different pace. I am sure you have heard the bit about " one plants another waters". Praying for your friend is the best thing you can do. What i hear in your post is about a person (DJ) who is very unsure, fearfull and untrusting. Keep praying.

Amen, Reba.
Learning, don't give up on your friend. Talk to her about the Lord, in a non-threatening way. His Word is a sword, a light and a hammer; it can do great things. Remember that she is in God's hands.
