It's a little easier for me, I guess, because I died an Atheist but made it back with Jesus' help. Changed my life completely. Left the corporate world. Got rid of all my so called friends. Went recluse for 3 years. After year 1, I remember being invited to a big party of the who's who of who I once knew. I went. I wanted to belong. I failed big time. While I did not drink, I participated in things I knew where wrong. Gossiping, making fun of people, etc. I felt like **** when I pulled out of the parking lot and I knew I was not ready to live in the world as I know was. Wasn't strong enough yet. So, I went underground another 2 years. Continued to study the Bible. My illness relasped a time or two. Whatever.



Year 5 I emerged again. A very different and stronger person. There is nothing this world has to offer me. Wealth, fame, fortune, clothes, cars, etc. In fact I am disgusted by all the marketing that I see every day which is particularlly ironic since that's what I did in my corporate life. Pedaled my products.



People who know me know me now, know that 99% of what comes out of my mouth is true and if I tell you I will do something, I will. If I tell you I won,t I'll tell you why and I don't. I have 2 friends left from my previous life. They sometimes don't want to hear what I have to say on a matter because they know you can't BS an old BS'r.



I guess all I can say is, know who and what and why you are.

The thing is, today's churches have moved away from the original gospel God gave mankind and they embrace a half a gospel of only the blood on the Cross and cutting off the other part, that being, Jesus' baptism which washes all our sins away (John 3:5). Therefore most of them are still sinners, hence their doctrines of repentance prayers and incremental sanctification...all man made and of which is added into the Bible by them. Therefore because they have broken Gods Law of adding and subtracting from His Word they will be cursed and be sent to hell.

They are only captivated with morals and ethics today...check it out for yourself..read most of their books...



The only way to live as a sinless and righteous child of God in this evil world today, is to go back to the original gospel of both Jesus water baptism and His blood on the Cross...this gospel is the powerful gospel that washes all your sins away. You can find this gospel being preached in these Free Christian Books....go to this website soon as..

2hood is one of those annoying people that try convert everyone, but does the bible not say to to hate the sin not the sinner?

Anyway the question Christians: How do you keep good morals in today's society?

I have family members that are Christian and the moral that they live by are impossible to follow every human been has broken at least

one of them. Pride, Wrath, Lust , Gluttony, Sloth, Greed and Envy.

To say you have not then you have lied which is a sin anyway.

Most of the people I've met with poor (I wouldn't say no) morals claimed to be Christians.

I don't think there are that many Satanic worshipers lying in wait either, although certain brands of Christians have claimed to see them throughout history--why stop now?



All that aside, how do the morals of other people affect your morals?

Believers have God's Holy Spirit living within. That is the ONLY way we are able to live in today's world, but not OF the world.

Well, surround yourself with others who want to obey god, read the bible and pray. The word of god speaks to you when you have it in your heart, it is a measuring stick a ruler so to speak..it is a reference guide for life. STick to it.. and god will make your path straight.



Discipleship is from the word discipline. It is a discipline, the more you obey god.. the easier it becomes.

hi Dude. "considering which you Christians..." I experience a delicate generalization there, no longer ALL Christians think of atheists worship the devil, me myself, being a faithful Christian, do no longer have confidence atheists pray to the devil. Atheism is , interior the summarized version, "no longer believing in God" good?. yet that would not inevitably propose that in case you do no longer have confidence in "a" then you definitely rapidly have confidence and worship "b". there are distinctive Christians accessible that as a replace of preaching the Gospel of "stable information" and residing how Jesus mentioned we ought to continually stay (love one yet another etc), they do the suitable opposite, they rebuke and condemn others. they're speedy to show out "you're an atheist, you will Hell" lol ironic good?? Hahahaha. nicely to me this is finished rubbish, Hate The Sin no longer The Sinner. i do no longer hate atheist, i do no longer rebuke them, i do no longer think of they worship the devil in basic terms because of the fact they do no longer worship God. which you will answer your question "NO, i do no longer think of atheist worship the devil" And P.S in case you're an atheist and you do worship the devil then this is honestly nice, it is your selection, all of us have unfastened will and freedom of selection...that would not make the two one extra effective than the different.

If your morals aren't based on something other than a book written in the bronze age, I beg of you, PLEASE rethink your morals. This is what religious fanatics use as an excuse to kill "non-believers". There are REASONS for our morals and if you don't understand that you are not only amoral, you're DANGEROUS!!!!
