ABout Me (I'm not new)

[Izar]

Hello, I already posted an introduction, yet, I just now thought of posting stuff about My belifs:

I am Pentocostal, Born Agian. If any one else is, PM me.

Many of my friends are of all denominations. Baptist (i used to be baptist), methodist, lutheran, prespyterian(sp?), and even catholics.

I have a question concerning "Cussing." Almost ALL of my friends (mainly the catholic and prespiterian ones) say that smoking, fonication, and pervertion (you know, stupid nasty people) is not wrong. Most ear Mary around their necks and crosses, and they still do drugs and stuff. My question is, Is cussing and drugs a sin. I think it is. For one thing, Cussing is insulting, drugs are like self mutilation. I know Fornication is a sin along with the perverted stuff.

Another thing, if you plan to marry a girl, and you have sex BEFORE your wedding night or around before, is it considered fornication.

Please, I want people to answer these cuz it has been rattling my brain for the past week. THANKS!

Nevermind about the cussing part:

Ephesians 4:29 tells it.

I have to tell my catholic frinds.

I think you already know the answers to your questions, Izar.

If what your friends are doing is not glorifying to God, and you know this in your heart and are offended, you already realize that these folks are doing something wrong. It doesn't mean they aren't Christian - but they aren't acting like someone who seeks daily to follow the Lord.

What I hear you alluding to is most definitely sinful behavior and your Catholic friends are way out of bounds if they think they can defend that behavior by anything the Church teaches nor by anything thing scripture teaches.

It sounds like they are like WC Fields who when was caugth reading the Bible said he was just looking for loop holes.

If you are pentacostal then you must know the answers to your questions.

I know the answers, but.. then again I don't

I'm confused kinda. One  more thing. They NEVER act christian. They act... so wrong. I ask them if they are christian and they say "Yeah" and when I ask them stuff like "do you do this ..." they just try to change the subject or say "I don't care. I believe in God and that's final"

It makes me mad...

I know that the Bible says pre-marital sex is wrong. However, some in this thread seem to think it's ok:

why do u care abt wad others think? they are wrong. u read the bible...it says it's wrong...end of story.

christians who dun act like christians are called Carnal christians. they dun practice what they believe. they do not repent and go on sinning.

Izhar..if u r confused about it.....u dun have to be. what depends is ur relationship with god and god alone.you have your own stand and you are your own individuality. do not think abt others...they'll have to deal with god and obedience themselves.

and ur question abt....having sex with your soon to become spouse just before marriage ......does anyone have an answer to it? i thought abt it too.

Wellll...even the demons believe in God...
It sounds like you're confronting these folks with their actions; that is the Biblical thing to do. If they refuse to listen, then they are probably refusing to listen to God as well. Keeping your friends in prayer, Izar.

I like to remember the saying "don't call yourself a Christian, let others call you a Christian"

If you don't agree w/ your friends, let them know, maybe they just need a nudge in the right direction.
Aside from that, prayer always helps

you can be on a team , or you can be apart of a team , your friends are on the team, but not part of it. im a christian in a family of 40 praticing catholics none believe in premarital sex or any of the things you mention i think your friend are cofusing catholic and liberal demercrat
