Im about to lose it... and im close to book burning.
I am and have been for about a year an Ex adventist , but ever since i left that doctrine i constantly get hounded by friends that remain in that faith. With things like how Ellen White said this and that ,its almost seems like they have insecurity in her as well(trying to prove her almost demi god status)....I do not want to crush these individuals faith but my anger for this woman is not a good christian feeling. Please if anyone is reading this pray for me
i had to rewrite this a few times.. please if forgive me if it seem's a bit childish but this is a desperate rage im so sick of "every wind of doctrine" why .. why does Christianity have to be so divided!!!!!

Jesus said there would be false Christs coming in His name.
I will pray, certainly. biggrin Remember, we are to love and pray for our enemies, those who persecute us. Pray that your friends would see the truth in Christ Jesus, pray for them, as well.
Also, perhaps look up some arguments against them, so the next time they "hound" you, you would be able to back up your position! biggrin Of course, in a calm, coolheaded manner, I would hope! ;D

Oh everythings fine now... i usually don't get that upset but it was one of those times .. unfortunately
and i have tons of counter arguments but when it comes down too it i know that the holy spirit is the only one that can change a person "not me"
I really don't get into wasting words , especially when i know what its like to be indoctrinated .. at that point God has to lead you, any out side argument is nothing but "Satan" too them.
I love you all and thank you for those that cared smile

And you are right, the Holy Spirit is the only one who CAN, ultimately, help us. But, remember, you can be the seed planter. And the Spirit will grow that seed you plant, whether it be in a day, a week, or a year! biggrin
Further, they may be indoctrinated, but the Lord can use your words and sounds to break down their walls, just like he used a the blowing of a ram's horns and the shouts of people to break down the walls of Jericho!
I hope you'll be able to influence them! biggrin May Jesus lead them to the Light!
