When it comes to religion, I always find myself judging myself when it comes to certain things, and I'm here to clarify if I'm the only one who does this and if truly, any of these things are indeed a sin.

The first one is something that happens to me frequently online, and that is when my conscience judges me whenever I see a video online, talking about God and I skip it. Most times, I always force myself back to the video to watch it, just so that I can stop feeling guilty about it.

But you see, irrespective of how frequently that has been happening to me, I've somehow found a way to ignore the guilt and just move on to the next video, so it's not that much of a problem for me anymore, unlike the next thing that I'm about to say now, which is the jehovah witness and other churches who do door to door evangelism.

You see, I've never really been a fan of door to door evangelism, and although I technically grew up in the church, I don't like it when people come to my home and indirectly asks me to stop whatever it is I was doing just so that I could pay attention to what they have to do, which in most cases is something I already know about.

But I'm a good boy, and I'm trained on respect and all that, so it's always very difficult for me to say no to this people whenever they come around. But then again, respect works both ways and there are times where I've had to put my respect aside and just say my mind, only in this case, whenever I'm about to say no to them and ask them to leave, my conscience always comes knocking, telling me that chasing this people away was as good as chasing God away, and that is the last thing I would ever want to do.

But is that right? Shouldn't I be able to decide when and where I want to listen to the gospel? Or is my conscience right and am I indirectly committing sin by asking this people to leave?
