Too sure for her salvation...

I was really irritated yesterday. My bf received a message from a his former friend asking him out. I asked why. She said she wanted to ask for an apology. My bf told her that know matter how hard she will ask for an apology she won't change the fact of what she did. She humiliated my bf. Then she said that my bf is mean and that my bf is walking in the wrong direction! Wooo! Well, I came to know that she is converted as a born again Christian that why she realized she did something wrong. I just can't understand why she had to say that we are walking on the wrong path? Is she sure of her path to the extent that she is having an affair to a lesbian? She's trying to wash someone's face and she can't wash hers. Grrr!

Hello Dexterous, sad to hear about that situation. To think that someone really is walking straight and in the right path he or she must check himself/herself very well as what Jesus in Matthew 7:3-5 it says... "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take the speck out of your eye,' when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother's eye. So in this verse it is very clear that we must check or examine our own self first before telling someone of their own plank. She is just being hypocrite if she does not turn away from her sinful ways and yet claiming about her salvation by joining such Religion that will never be the basis of her salvation. Happy Mylotting!

Yes, I think so too. She is proud that she thinks she found her "right way" and hypocrite thinking that she will was already forgiven and that she is not a sinner. I can't wait to see her and give her a piece of my mind.

Hehe, just calm down my dear, just be sure you are level headed when you speak to her, just be cool and smile, just don't sound judgmental to her too. Keep in mind that nobody is perfect, but by God's grace we can achieve this, it will take time of course. Happy Mylotting!

Wow we are an interesting bunch. I do not believe in god but I do believe in human nature. She want to do what everyone says she should. She needs that approval. We all do, or we get over it. Getting over it is hard work and not everyone is up for the task right away. I can understand the lesbian affairs because there is nothing like the taste of a woman. Maybe she thinks that her sins are not as "bad" in the same light as other people's sins

Affair to anyone is wrong Lesbian or not.. Does not matter it's equally as bad. Your boyfriend it is up to him if he wants to give her a chance to apologise.. if she does not apologise and keeps playing games with him.. I am sure he will realise it and put a stop to it.. If he does not put a stop to it then you need to encourage him to tell her no, and give him reasons why... That you think him meeting or seeing her is hurting him. But, do not get into the born again Christian argument, or about how bad of a person she is, as this will only irritate him, if he still has feelings for her.. Also do not be pushy but be firm... You would wish he would not see her because ---- she appears to be just hurting him... you worry about him getting hurt etc... I am sorry you are having to struggle through this with your bf... But, also making better plans may help him choose to do better things with his time too... But in the end he has to be the one to make the choice as if he is gonna remain friends with her although she hurt him.. or not... Or if he is gonna cut ties and totally break off all contact... Give him time to heal and decide.. but also help him lay down ground rules and limits so that he is not being controlled, hurt, or used by this woman. Hope that helps.... - DNatureofDTrain

I think, she's not really sincere in her apology when she had to throw a judgmental comment like that when being deflected by someone she's trying to ask forgiveness for. If she really was sincere, letting the person know she's trying to make amends is enough and when that person is not ready to forgive her yet, then all she can do is pray and wait. She's compounding the problem by adding such unsolicited comment that obviously hurt and offended you and your boyfriend. Do not fuel you boyfriend's anger toward this person. Even if she humiliated him, if he has finally moved on with you then I think he should give her a chance to say her piece so you can all move on. I hope, you'll be able to work things out because having to hold a grudge against someone is such a heavy burden.

Exactly! If she's sincere she won't be driven by someone or something to ask for an apology. Don't worry, I won't hold a grudge. I am just worried about my bf. Thanks a lot.

well this part of an issue i see with many who becomes reborn again. they want to judge others and stuff. which is crazy for real. but looking to tell him she's sorry is a good thing. i reached a spot in my life and i went and asked forgiveness to people i hurt in my life. but for him to forgive her, isnt so much for her its for himself actully. but i think he can and should frgive her for him.

I have reached a point too in my life realizing that I hurt someone but I don't ask for forgiveness just because I am driven too. Thanks a lot!

tell your bf's ex that if she thinks you're on the wrong path she better stay away. what does a rational being want to do with two ill-doing people, anyway? she cannot save the two of you and you dan't want her to be the one to be the instrument on saving you, thank you ;) no one should tell you that you're on the wrong path. tell her being a born again christian is not her calling if she chooses to preach and judge people. she gives her religion a bad name.
