Bible Discussion Thread

I'm at a warehouse job where there is a lot of sin with coworkers. I just started, but I'm considering getting a different job. Would appreciate your prayers.

Dear Joe, you should pray for God's guidance in this matter. But there is sin going on no matter where you work. And if we separate ourselves from those sinners how else are they going to know about Jesus? Even Jesus dined with publicans and sinners because those were the people who needed Him. Have you ever thought that God may have put you there as a witness to those people?

Hi Joe , I once worked in a similar situation . For me it was a balancing act . How to be true to myself and my God , without judging or alienating those around me . It was tough at times for sure ! You have to be friendly but stay strong in Christ . I was surprised to discover that I was respected ( by most but not all ) for my religious convictions . Remember that many people feel the need to put on an act , a faade , in order to fit in with their work mates , so you won't see their true selves until you have worked there for a while . Be kind , honest and friendly but stay true to Him who is true to you . If it really does become to difficult for you then look for other employment , but give it a chance , you may be able to help someone there . Make sure you keep reading your Bible and saying your prayers every day without fail .
