BUT I still think "Christ with Belial" and "believeth with an infidel" there has a lot differenc,we should Make a clear difference between "Christ with Belial" and "believeth with an infidel".

Other than mere social interaction how far or deep does your relationships go??
What do you expect from them??
What do you expect an unbeliever to to believe??

2Co 6:14  Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?
v. 15  And what accord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has a believer with an unbeliever?

The word fellowship/accord means - agreement between persons; union in opinions, sentiments, views or interests; peace; harmony.

So what Paul is implying is Christ has no more fellowship with Belial than light has with darkness or righteousness with lawlessness.  In the same way we are to be like Christ and not to have fellowship/accord/union with an unbeliever/infidel.

1Co 15:33  Do not be deceived: "Evil company corrupts good habits."
v. 34  Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.

Now where your parents are concerned, you must give them due respect.  But it is only for your own good that you carefully pick and choose who you socialize with.  Living a life for Christ is very serious business, we must actually die to self.

Gal 2:20  I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.
    
Rom 14:8  For if we live, we live to the Lord; and if we die, we die to the Lord. Therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.

mercy, peace and love

soberxp:
yeah,I can understand better now. thx a lot Kat

Belial/satan can not become Christ,but can we change an unbeliever/infidel into believeth?I thought the answer is yes,is it still unequally yoked together with unbelievers?some kind of Rays sense of humor. ;D

Soberxp, we all live close or next door or have affection with unbelievers but we don't for one minute agree with their beliefs. And only God can make a believer out of an unbeliever. Have you read about "the foolishness of preaching"?
My husband is an atheist (he used to believe but it was more on the level of God being Santa Claus.) Now should I leave him because of that? NO!!!! In fact, it makes me have more compassion for him. I like many people of other religions but I don't worship with them. Some people are so easy to love.
You will become a monk if you separate from all of the unbelievers, there are so many now-a-days. But never forget they watch you and your responses. Remember we are to love even our persecuters. That's a tough one.
Don't worry so much, just tell God and watch Him use you to love them. Judy

Very good, Judy!

My friends (christian church-christendom) reject me as friends unless I agreed their faith, i.e., hell, free will, etc. I cannot become agreed with their faith. That is hurt me that they don't accept me as who I am. Even I do accept who they are and their faith and I don't mind to be 'friends' with them but they refuse accept me as friend unless I agree their faiths. But I have only one friend who believes hell, free will, etc. but he accept who I am and what I believe. He doesn't agree my faith and I don't agree his faith BUT we do 'friend', like good buddy, chatting, helping each other, and anything but no argue about faith. He accept me who I am and my faith and I accept him of who he is and his faith, we become good friend. He can watch me what my faith is like (attitude, character, reputation, Christlike) and maybe he wants to know what my faith is, if not, we are still friend because we accept each other regardless. I don't have anyone one (friend) who has faith like mine. No one I know of. So I have one friend who is different faith. He does not preach me of his faith and I don't preach him of my faith. That's it.
