I'm So Frustrated
Origen II:
I've recently been studying more and more on the subject of Universal Reconciliation and am convinced that this was the teachings of Christ and the Apostles.
However, in the past two months or so I have become more and more frustrated, angry, and depressed. I am always in dispute with other Christians (defending myself) from their accusations and their harsh judgements. I have become more angry with people in general and have lashed out often. I feel like I've been cursed with what I know.
Ever since that night that I kneeled down and prayed for God to grant me the truth in wisdom...and having come upon this site and began my journey in learning the truth, I have truly seen the other side of Christianity.
The saddest part is that in all my struggles so far...I have yet to find a group of individuals that believe as I do. I am so alone. Only I and my fiance believe these things and I am scared that I may be leading her into something that will hurt her more than anything else...
We are just so alone in all this. The lot of people around us are all eternal suffering proponents and of Christendom, and I and my fiance feel like aliens. I just have no support and I feel like I'm falling more and more into sin each day because of my anger and depression.
What can I do? Please help us.

Dear Origen II,
Everyone here and everybody who comes to the knowledge of the Truth goes through these kinds of experiences. Every word you stated in your post is like a mirror of my life. Stay in the word and build a strong foundation before you try to take on these so-called christians, for they will eat you alive.
When Jesus walked this earth, He had a hard life. He suffered greatly and we are not greater than our Lord. If so we suffer for His names sake we also shall partake in His glory. Part of the truth in truly following Jesus, in which churches dont talk much about, is the suffering.
There are many here in this forum who are great at quoting scripture to lift your spirits. Just stay in His word, love Him with all your hearts and love your neighbors as yourself. I truly understand where you are coming from.
God bless you both,
Gary

Hello Origen,
It is all right, God is with you!!
You can do nothing. God will do it all for you. Be patient. This has been happening to others for 2000 years.
2Th 1:1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timothy, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ:
2Th 1:2 Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
2Th 1:3 We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is meet, because that your faith groweth exceedingly, and the charity of every one of you all toward each other aboundeth;
2Th 1:4 So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:
2Th 1:5 Which is a manifest token of the righteous judgment of God, that ye may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which ye also suffer:
2Th 1:6 Seeing it is a righteous thing with God to recompense tribulation to them that trouble you;
2Th 1:7 And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
2Th 1:8 In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ:
2Th 1:9 Who shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord, and from the glory of his power;
2Th 1:10 When he shall come to be glorified in his saints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.
2Th 1:11 Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfill all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power:
2Th 1:12 That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
These verses apply directly to us in our daily struggles. We have the HOPE of CHRIST in our lives. All others will see the truth when their time comes have faith in that. You are in my prayers.

You are not alone. Many of us here have no one and we would rejoice if we had a receptive spouse.
What a blessing to have your fiance. And you are not leading her into anything. If she is being drawn, it is God who is drawing her. You are simply an instrument.
Do not discuss these truths with anyone unless they ask you. We all want to tell the world when we first hear the truth, but we all get the same results you do.
The hand of God is on you, you know the truth. What a privilege! What a blessing!

Welcome Origen II. And Welcome to the Club! I can say a big AMEN to your post and all the others. All I have is my husband and son out of my entire family. But gee, that is alot when you add the Lord in! We just don't say anything to anyone anymore. I even went to church yesterday just to see my granddaughter-(I sat and read my notes on Ray's teachings.) When you start reading the forum you see similarities in the pattern of...absolute joy and happiness over discovering the truth, and in knowing we were dragged, then we tell everyone-Yikes, no one wants to know or they think-here they go again, another cult-, then for me, a kind of a depression type, loneliness thing goin on, then staying in the word and Mike & Ray's teaching gets me back grounded. I will pray for you and your family. How wonderful to be starting out your life together in the truth!. God Bless you and stay in touch.
