Is it normal to be a christian and be too scared to admit it?

Nor is it normal for a Christian to curse and be perverted!

I don't know what you are afraid of exactly. All of my friends know I believe in God, and hate people blaspheming and sometimes I say something and then, "God forgive me!" straight afterwards.

Sounds like you're breaking the first Commandment - that your friends are more important than God, as well as being a real Judas :o( I presume you know who that is.

Anyhow, it goes against all Christian teaching which is to spread the Word of God especially when you remember that Christians died for their faith, as the Romans threw them to the lions for sport.

You are maybe young and easily influenced by your friends and you'll get a lot of crap answers about your beliefs on this site. Do what your conscience tells you is right or speak to your minister in church.

Good luck.

No because you aren't being yourself. I never used to admit I loved poo but now I can and I don't care what people think.

Listen, you gotta stand up for what you believe. I'm Christian and, even though i'm a very easy going and non-preaching kind of guy, sometimes I had to defend my faith. If it bothers anyone, well.. it's their problem.

And it's not denying God or Son of Man. The eternal sin denying the Holy Spirit.
Christ told us in the book of Matthew -

"Whoever is not with me is against me, and whoever does not gather with me scatters. And so I tell you, people will be forgiven every sin and blasphemy. But the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come."

If you confess with your mouth you shall have eternal life. Potential embarrassment<Eternal Life

If I'm thinking correctly, it sounds like you are trying to fit in with your non-Christian friends, which is fine to an extent. Once you begin compromising your own beliefs to fit in with them, that's when you've gone too far. If you feel like you should stop being perverted and cursing, then find new friends. But, if you feel like this is alright, then OK.

You know what Christianity implies, and the struggles that is ensued with it. So do whatever you think is right.

I've felt just like you except I was Catholic. If you really read the bible logically, you tend to see things that contradic themselfs or you just feel like going against its points. But at the end of the day its just you and God. God is not a man, woman, or thing. It is a spiritual bond you make with yourself and be spiritual. God is not in the sky taking in our prayers and doing things ofr us. It is all around us. You take God in every time you breathe.

I believe the Holy Spirit through Dr. Seuss best said it like this..

Why FIT IN when you were born to STAND OUT!

We were called to be Christ-like in our character (behavior), not Christian by name. This can only be done when we surround ourselves with others who walk in the character of Christ. We witness to the unrighteous and get strengthened within the body of believers we are connected with.

Psalms 1 1-6 NASB

How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night.
3 He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers.
4 The wicked are not so, But they are like chaff which the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the wicked will perish.

Be Blessed In Your Journey!

Unless you live in a country where you will be persecuted for your religion then you shouldn't be afraid to tell people about it.

Exactly what Joybird said! Denying that you are a Christian goes exactly against Christianity. One of our most important duties is to enlighten other people about the good news of Jesus Christ:)

I do, however, understand where you are coming from. You need to learn that what other people think about you doesn't matter and that as long as you are 100% true to yourself, you will be okay! Anyways, if your friends would judge you simply based on your religion, they are probably not worthwhile friends.

Try looking for some other young Christian people in your area in your church's youth group or church events. You can give each other support!
