I was born into a catholic family. My parents especially my mom is a die-hard catholic. I did all the catholic sacraments, baptism, confirmation, holy eucharist, except matrimony which would come by God's grace. I was known in my parish for being a devout member of some societies.

Fast forward to this day, I'm no more a catholic, I attend bible believing churches like faith baptist/rccg. This is because upon completion of my university education, I was inspired by the Holy spirit to know the truth, I couldn't prove so many catholic beliefs in the bible, and I care a lot about my eternity. It caused a lot of dispute between I and my parents and even up till today, they've stopped calling me or asking about my welfare. All efforts to convince them beyond reasonable doubt have proved abortive. Pls I need your advice nlanders coz I need to reconcile with my family.

so the Catholic Church is not a "Bible believing church"?
2. was it the holy spirit or your friends that inspired you?
3. if you don't have a problem attending every other church(most of which you don't know their origin) why do u have a problem attending the Catholic Church?

I see no difference between you and your parents... So why are you complaining. In other words, if you marry someone who is a non catholic and then later converts to catholic, you will divorce him... Like parent like daughter.

It isn't as if you change religion. You are still a Christian right? So are your parents but because of simple thing like denomination your relationship is in shamble. Is this how Christians want to win so called unbelievers to their christ? Each denomination in Christianity should be classify under a new religion, They don't seem alike anyway.

What do people have against the Catholic church, I'm a catholica and i am proud, i love God and i try to live my life as christ would, i don't have a problem with any denomination because we all share one God, i can marry anyone regardless of denomination and i attend any denomination when invited by friends.
I really don't know why you believe catholics are not bible believing as I'm forced to wonder if the bible i have is different from yours.
Love your neighbour, pray for you enemies,
And you can't marry a Catholic, did the holy spirit minister that to you or what... I might as well say i cant marry someone who discriminates..

Make peace with your parents please, they did their best to raise their children in the way of the Lord, remember you will have children too.
God bless you
Sincerely
A Catholic who will change the world

Ps don't judge catholics or any other denomination.. Christianity is being christlike... "CHRIST-LIKE" in our everyday lives, in how we treat other, i might not be able to quote the bible from beginning to end, but i have love for my fellowman, compassion for the poor and needy, kindness and generosity for the less privileged and overall peace with oneself.

God help everyone in this thread to be more like Christ, to be kind, generous and compassionate

Show us the shortness of our lives, that we may gain wisdom of heart

Leave Religion and follow Christ.

You see samething happened to me. They even plan to disown me,stop my education and worst you could imagine. I didn't argue or beg them I only report them to God in prayer. Same night God visited my dad and that was the end of the whole thing. These days my dad treasure anytime I speak about the Bible. Whenever am around, he will find all means to talk about world events so I could enlightened him more about what is coming into the world. I end up being a Light to my family.

If you want something like this you give up on Christianity and embrace Christ. If you are confused about my statement just whatsapp me 08185628794. God help you.

Matthew 10:37
Jesus said "Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.


In the world you shall face different trial and challenges but be of good cheer for i have overcome the World.

It's a Trial of Faith. #Jesus or Parent? Choose one. The samething happened to Pastor Benny Hinn. Standstill, Steadfast. They will come to light. But if you go back who wil bring them back to the light.

It happened also to Generals, I believe God is building you, many great people God had used faced this also. Don't compromise your Faith. #Jesus is with you and he will see you through.

Jesus said "Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

#You're the Saviour of your Family. #Save them.

Re: How Do I Reconcile With My Parents? by Nobody: 3:09pm On Nov 21, 2015
My dear hold on to your belief in the truth. It is part of the price you pay for giving your life to Christ. Our Lord Jesus Christ says as follows in Matthew 10:37-38 "He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. And he that taketh the not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me." True Christianity comes with a price and this could be part of the price to pay. I can assure you that more are still on the way. But you have to hold on to Him Who has delivered you from the power of darkness and has translated you to the kingdom of His dear Son ( Colossians 1:13). But God is faithful. He is able to keep all that you have committed unto Him against that day (2 Timothy 1:12). Keep on praying for your parents to see the light of the true gospel of Jesus Christ, while holding on to your faith. You will all reconcile one day. I'm speaking out of experience. God bless you.

Rather than throw ur modified faith into the faces of your parents, why didn't you practice your new faith in your privacy and then do their thing when you visit them. Afterall, all Christians are one and the same no matter the denomination. There are quite a lot I hav to say about ur change of faith but that would be for another day.


So you wish to turn him into a hypocrite? And point of correction, all Christians are not one and the same. There are professed "Christians" and true Christians so free the guy
