People say if you love someone or something you have to have peace
But lets be honest who really has peace 24/7
Let be real for a sec if someone did something to hurt you and knew they did it just to get a reaction out of you would you still be at peace or coming from church just getting done praying on your knees finding out the pastor or the first lady really don't want you there or inside a home you live really at all How would you feel if someone tells you to leave but you rather stay how would you feel if you are in church every Sunday just to hear the pastor wants a new car what would you do I just needed to vent and wonder mainly if I should find a new church or stay When they point out my sins and say I'm going to hell but they are doing the same or putting me down because I can not buy a dinner or pay for six flags every week

Going by your other discussions, I feel that you need a friend more than anything else at the moment - someone whom you can confide and share.
Unfortunately, I do not know anything much about you but some pieces of information and my own interpretations of them.
However, whatever, it is, a religious place where the head has his own demands and keeps pointing out others' sin - is definitely odd and bad. As @phoonk pointed out, you should try changing the church (if that is possible).
You definitely have something in you - something that makes you what you are and similarly something that is good about you. You need to find people, places who would look at these qualities in you rather than make a mess and try to kill your self-esteem.

Peace is the goal but I don't think it is possible to have a permanent Peace.
It sounds like it's time to find a new church. It is terrible when adults act like they are in high school as it sounds like some do at your church. Good luck to you my friend.

Life is indeed full of ups and downs . In addition , people have different ways of coping up with their lives . It's up to us on how to deal with different people who seem to have a negative effect on us .

Unfortunately I do not attend church so really can't give advise. You would like to be somewhere where they appreciate you for your individuality. People should always look on the good side of people. Good luck with your decision.
