It's really admirable and even admirable that you try to abstain from drinking and show a good attitude even when you go to a drinking party.
But there is an important fact in this context.
Is the message you want to convey to those around you by going to such lengths really "I'm this good of a Christian"? Probably not.
Most Christians want to spread the word that Christianity is true.
If so, it would be uncomfortable to hear that you are a true Christian because you don't drink alcohol.
They mistakenly believe that Christianity is about self-restraint and becoming a good person through one's own efforts.
So, it is not something to be happy about just hearing praise.
If we don't clear up their misunderstandings about Christianity right away, they may never be able to have faith.
Because you will think that you can only become a Christian if you quit drinking.

From "Can Christians Drink Alcohol?"

So why do people with depression find it difficult to open up about their problems in church? First, as mentioned earlier, it's because depression is often considered a spiritual illness, unrelated to the physical.
If patients continue to hear advice to overcome with prayer and the Word, they will no longer be able to tell the community about their condition.
Secondly, society's view of depression is not very positive.
It is usually considered shameful and something to be hidden for people with mental illness to visit a psychiatrist.
This is a very strange thing.
A visit to a psychiatrist for a person with mental illness should be recommended with the same level of care as a visit to an internist for a person with stomach pain.
It is truly unfortunate that only a small percentage of people with depression receive proper treatment due to the negative perception of depression in society.

Can depression be overcome through prayer alone?

It is a well-known fact that there are still many people within the church who need to hear the gospel.
Yet, many people believe that their church attendance experience or whether they were born into the Christian faith determines their identity as a Christian.
When they evangelize, they believe that if they just get people to attend church regularly, the rest will just flow.
As this kind of thinking spreads, people in the church will become solely focused on who came to the service that day and how many people came.
We fail to see properly those who attend church but whose hearts are drying up.
Also, people who temporarily cannot attend church for various reasons may be considered to have no faith.

"Will the Holy Week Guarantee Our Faith?"

There are always strange twists and turns in the content of Christianity that defy our expectations.
CS
To borrow Lewis's phrase, there is "no suspicious a priori clarity" like that of pantheism or Newtonian physics. Christian faith always exhibits a peculiar sense of surprise at the very moments when one might think one knows everything.
Even Bible verses you've read hundreds of times will seem new again as time passes.
Because we ourselves who interpret it have changed.
If there were only one way to interpret every verse of Scripture, that would be reason enough to leave Christianity.
I can't even imagine how boring such a situation would be.

“Will people who have not had the opportunity to hear the gospel go to hell?”

We celebrate the day Jesus came as Christmas.
As is the case in any city, Christmas in New York is a time when the gap between rich and poor is most clearly revealed.
It boasts a dazzling holiday atmosphere that draws visitors from all over the world, but even on Christmas Day, the streets are filled with homeless people wearing straw hats to protect themselves from the cold.
If they fall asleep in an indoor train station, the police will show up and chase them out.
If Jesus were to visit New York on this day, where would he go? It wouldn't be a flashy department store selling gifts or a bustling street filled with carols.
Be careful, but it's most likely not a church either.
He will come to the place where the lowliest are gathered.
You will stand with the homeless who are being driven out, and you will reach out to all those who have to endure the cold on the streets.
Just as the setting for the first Christmas was not a palace bed but a manger.
