There was a guy who went to our church,
I got on well with him,
every week I would pay for a cup of coffee with him and he would ring me every week to see if I was having a cup of coffee,
but one day I asked him to pay and he had an excuse so we had no coffee that day, cause I was not going to pay,
the next week he seemed to be reluctant to pay up,
the following week the coffee shop closed and I suggested we have a cup of coffee after church at church,
however I never heard from him again.
I could see from some of his actions he was immature in faith,
for example he had bikini girl or worse models on his mobile phone,
he had no problem receiving illegal downloaded latest movies, which is stealing.
I paid for cups of coffee for a whole year yet when I asked him to do a favour he wanted money.
So our friendship was all one way,
carnal,
his Christianity was just a show.
I deleted his phone number,
I don't need people who are a bondage to keep as friends,
and I don't trust people who have no spiritual idea of the ethical morality of their Christian faith.
Leeches attach themselves to you while you feed them your blood
but they give you nothing in return.
As a Christian we should bear long with others and go the extra mile,
but if they seem like a stone we should ask God to break them off of our lives and move them aside.
there are other scriptures like throwing your pearls before swine,
in other words giving what is godly wisdom to the plain dumb,
and friendship with the world is being enemies with God.
But its a real shame that some Christians in the church are only there as stumbling blocks and have no idea
who Jesus is or what He can do for them.
