Ok, I'm Nadia. I enjoy showing cattle and graphic design art. I work at McDonalds but am somewhat intellectual. I am studying Social Work at university and it's really not as great as you may think. I used to suffer with depression and have been in and out of it since I was 14. I'm a believer in Jesus Christ and I follow Him the best I can but I am open to all religions and will not force mine upon you. :)

but my friend is a chrisitan. He wants me to go to church with him every week, and im not all that enthusiastic. I feel guilty for even thinking about saying no because i get all self concious when i think of him thinking of me as a sinner. Anyways we were having a very good time at a footbal game and then we were talking about stuff and somehow the topic just came up about dying. He was like, no offense but if you died right now i think you'd go to hell. He was being really serious. Well, it depressed the hell out of me. Im a nice person, i dont try to judge people, i like to share, my morals are higher then anyone elses and then i get depressed because i cant live up to them. I was really hurt but i didnt let on. He wouldnt elaborate, he said we could talk about it on the phone sometime. Well, do you think it was right of him to say that? Or am i just being dumb? I cant help but feel like im some kind of 'project' hes trying to save... (link)
well i am christian and would never tell my non-christian friend if they were going to hell!!
in the end it is not up to your friend to say whether you are going to hell or heaven. it is God's job, no one else could even attempt it!
don't feel as though you're some project because your friend is just trying to make you aware of the Good News.
maybe go to church with him and just check it out. because, seriously, i never used to go to church because i thought it would be the most boring thing in the whole world, and it ended up being great fun!
remember this too, it would hurt your friend too if he believes you are going to hell. i'm not saying you are! but i'm just saying if thats what he believes it will hurt him soo much too.
hope i helped you!
Nadia.
