hey all i reckon that we need to be prayin for the youth of the potter's house all around the world to rise up within their chuches and groups and take a stand for jesus christ and take the name of jesus outside of their note books and preach it to those that christ said would perish without him!!!

I am seventeen and still trying to figure this out. We all are indeed not perfect and we all need to be prudent with non-believers.
I go around and start talking about my faith and hardly anyone takes me seriously. At my school there is a groups of Goths that i hang out with since i am into the whole look. I see there is beauty in darkness that hardly any recognize.
They give me a hard time though because i am not goth and should stop wearing black cloths. I tell them that i want to be a Christian goth. One of my best friends who has supported me in the past told me that i would never be able to be a Christian goth. It reminds me of the people who stand outside churches and tell people that they do not belong. Luckily my church is not like that and they dont say a thing about me dressing up in black cloths and chains.
I ask you, what difference does it make that we tell people that they can be Christian if they wanted to. All the Goths think that it would be wrong to walk into a different culture. They think that they would never belong at a church because of how they have feelings for the same gender. I am not that way but I do things that normal guys don't. Like writing in a journal and I have a mullet. I am strong in my faith but no one would take me seriously.
I think it is easier to support my Christian friends and say that i would just not due that well talking to other non-believers as though they are wrong about normal Christians because we really do accept anyone who comes to Christ but they don't feel comfortable when they are around normal Christians.
