So, my girlfriend, Anita, and I have been going out for two years already. We go to the same church and our interests are really alighned. However, it's a hidden relationship. I've prayed to God about it before, but it seems that either he hasn't answered it yet or I'm just not listening closely.
So, about 8 months ago, my youth mentor comes back from China and slowly throughout the year she has figured out that Anita and I are together. She keeps telling me this is a sin and that I need to confess it and get right with God again. However, I believe her stance is completely bias. She assumes that all guys are jerks, just because her husband divorced her.
She has kicked me off of the worship team, without telling me, and asking others about my personal life. What should I do?
Pray for me please, this is a lot of stress. XP

Well, first of all that was a crap thing for your mentor to do.
Secondly...why is the relationship hidden, and why on earth would your mentor react the way she did? I'm assuming you're probably a teenager, and isn't it normal for most teens to date at some point? Does your church have something against romantic relationships? Why would she tell you that it's a sin for you to date your girlfriend?
I'm sorry. I'd offer advice, but I'm terribly confused as to the situation. I will, however, pray that everything works out for you.

Pray for me please, this is a lot of stress. XP Well, yeah, I have to agree with the person who posted above me. Why is it considered a sin to date? And why is this relationship hidden? Also, maybe you should both find another church that doesn't care whether or not people date.

... Having a Girl Friend isn't a sin. Unless you are having intercourse with her or doing something with her that is against the Bible.

Wow....your mentor is mean. You shouldn't listen to him. If she is the one for you, you should stick to her and be at her side. It's not a sin unless you either cheated on her or someone else.
Also I agree with SinfulGuillotine. ::nods::
