It’s a hard thing; to change one’s religious habits.

For most have a LOT of time and effort invested in family, friends and others who are also involved with them in belief.

To say, “I was wrong about these things” also says to them; even though unspoken; “You are wrong; too.”

Unless the Holy Spirit does the comforting; it’s a rough row to hoe.

[Mark17]

Yes, it’s not easy. Family and friends might be outraged. My family was. I had an advantage. I was saved, when I was already in the Air Force, far from home. After I left that false religion, and I will not mention what false religion it was, but I think you know, I had enough time to get good follow up, and get well grounded in the Bible. By then I really came to the realization of how spiritually blind I had been. I realized I had been saved from a devil’s Hell, and by then, I didn’t care what my family thought of it. By then, I had assurance of salvation, something false religionists do not have. 👎 Everyone should have assurance of salvation. It’s a beautiful thing. They should try it. They will like it. 😁
