Today I confessed my dad that I'm a firm follower of Christ and also didn't took the puja blessings by saying "I won't take " , I believe in Christ only . My dad told that "from childhood to till all is due to presence of hindu god's, and now you're condemning , ignoring them" . Today dad literally shouted at me but I stood firm in Christ and told that" I've found my faith in Christ from inner I got that feeling . " He further told that I'm breaking the family's legacy of following Hinduism and turning into Christ . " My dad is forcing to take part in pujas but I ignored and don't know what will happen . But after all I still held firm believe in Christ . Share your views and what to do in this case .
My father shouted at me

Good morning, subh_0hr;
Sola gratia gives an important first thought. Please continue to love and honor your parents reference Exodus 20:12 in your Bible. Don't return anger with anger to anyone for your faith.
You'll be going through the tough stages of standing firm in your new faith in Christ. Two extreme examples of not worshiping other gods is in Daniel 3 regarding Hananiah (Shadrach,) Mishael (Meshach,) Azariah (Abednego) and Daniel (Belteshazzar) in Daniel 6.
You're in our prayers, brother, as well as your parents.
God bless you, subh, and thank you for opening up to your new friends in Christ.

Hi subh_0hr,
You are faced with a difficult situation, for on the one hand your are instructed to obey your parents yet on the other are to worship no one but God. I don't envy you in this regard but with prayer and God's grace you will navigate these waters.
Here is a verse from Colossians 3 that may give you comfort. I have highlighted verses 20 and 21.
Your family is in my prayers.
