Telling People you're a Christian


I was a bit worried at first when I was telling people I was a Christian. So I thought about it for a while and realised that there's a couple of concerns they may have had (and that I'd had in the past)...

That I'd rock on up to their house early on a Saturday morning with a bible wanting them to 'see the light'...
However, I figure if people want to know about my beliefs, they'll ask me, and I'll tell them

That I'd stop going to the pub with them
I still like going to the pub, and I still like my friends.

That I'd start judging them, the life they lead, and the things they do.
The bible does say that the day of judgement is at hand. It doesn't, however, name me (or any other Christian, as far as I know) as the judge in question. More so, with all my faults and mistakes, I'm hardly in a position to judge anyone.

That now that I was a Christian I didn't have to use my brain any more..
I still have it, and still use it. Sometimes more than I used to


Most of my friends were fairly positive about it in a conservative way. Some, I think were slightly annoyed - not because of what I was doing, but how they perceived it might affect their life. There you go...
