I used to lead a sinful life to say not the least, I mean fornication, ademant lying,etc.
I have beome born again when I came to full acceptance of the church a year ago. Now, I am sharing the lessons of the mistakes I have learned with friends and family. They are calling me preachy and judgemental. I maybe to hard, but there is really one thing which set things off. I used to “hunt” ghosts, but have realized the great sin in doing so. I have three great friends who are like brothers and I worry for their souls. They are still doing this activity and I have reporached them on a couple of occasions. The last time I talked to a friend of mine about Ghost Hunts and saying the “n” word.
He replied to me with sayings like this:
“Everybody swears, everybody says dirty jokes and everybody drinks a beer or two once in awhile.”
“The bible NOWHERE says its not good to hunt ghosts”
“I wish people would look at themselves before calling me a drunk, lazy, posessed…”
“I put up with CRAZY and PSYCHOTIC biblical verses that make NO SENSE TO ANYONE”
" If people would actually be a committed part of a team they helped start and follow through with things for once they’d know how the procedure is done. We ESTABLISH A RELATIONSHIP WITH THE PEOPLE AND DONT GO IN BLIND"
The rest is similar and says I am a backstabber etc.
It seems all my family and friends are angry at me for embracing the teachings of the gospel and the church. I feel alone.

). Maybe you could suggest another activity, instead of ghost hunting and drinking. Don’t bring up religion in conversation, make them bring it up, make them curious. I’m not necessarily saying to play it cool, but don’t force God on them, because if you do, they will react negatively.
