Why put so much effort to convert people?

Frankly and honestly I don't care about eternal life. I wish people just respect other people thinking and feeling at the moment and not to be aggressive. Thanks for your post

haha! your answer is the best. i'll remember that. i'll them i am a Wiccan.

Juliana Rose - you said that we just follow a book that has no proof to be true - - - and where did you get that as a FACT? It is true - every word. You just "choose" to reject it, and again - - that is YOUR CHOICE. Your choice to reject what it says, is a gift from God, and it is your right to exercise that choice. It has been proven to be true over and over again through the years. there are many infallable proofs to support the true facts. Prophecies that were written about Jesus Christ in the Old Testament, have ALL been fullfilled, except for a very few yet to be fullfilled. When one does what the (book as you call it)says, and the results promised happen - - that in and of itself proves it to be true. The natural mind cannot comprehend the truth, because the Bible tells us that. It has to be approached with a sincere attitude, and an open mind. Many today choose to not believe, because they want to be their own god, and run their own affairs with no interference from God, and all are allowed that priviledge. Humanity in general, does not want to be accountable to anyone, or any supreme being - namely God - - but whether you like it or not you "belong" to the creator, and it is His will for you to find your place within His plan, and if you abdicate that - - your time to stand before Him will be unavoidable. Life is a precious gift -- both our earthly and much more, our spiritual life. C.C.

You are doing a wonderful job embodying what most dislike about Christians. I'm happy that you enjoy and love your belief system. I'm glad that you are a happy person in general, but you just made an example of yourself, it's people like you that just HAVE to tell people that they are WRONG and will go to HELL bc they CHOOSE to and what not, that make other dislike Christians. Just be accepting and loving, Jesus was, why is it so hard for his followers? "I like Jesus, he did great things, it's his followers that I cannot stand." Gandhi

If you'll put aside your anger long enough to re-read what I just said, I didn't say anything about "hell." I just said you will stand before God with your choices in life, as will I. Our own conscience either convicts or vindicates us, and it is one more thing that the Bible teaches that is true. I bear you no ill will, and said nothing about judging you or about you going to hell.

Gee - - how interesting it is to see so many here reading other people's minds, and being SO SURE of other people's feelings. and motives. I am a Christian as well, and none of your statements about sharing beliefs have applied to me. I don't go door to door. I don't PREACH the gospel, because "living it" makes a far louder statement. I am for the most part joyful and optimistic, and very blessed. I love sharing God's Word when I have an opportunity. I don't "shove anything down someone's throat" - - and joining a church or religion does NOT get one to heaven, OR bring about a true conversion. That is something that comes through choice, and only with a sincere heart that is seeking God. We have whatever amount of life upon the earth, we're allowed, and after that, whether we believe in God or not - - we are then standing before Him, and there's no turning back. So many have made Christianity a bunch of dos and don'ts. That's not what it is about. I am sorry for all those who are 'pushy' and offensive. But you can pass them by and at least ask God to show you what "HE" wants for you. Believe that He will do that, and go from there. I have others like Jehovah Witness, and Mormons come to my door, and though we are different in our view points, I don't feel threatened or pressured by any of them. I choose to be pleasant, and I am secure in my relationship with Jesus Christ, so it matters not to me. Once you find the truth, AND embrace it - - it 'will' set you free, and I have had that experience. Have a wonderful day. C.C.

Just to clarify myself, I said "Many Christians" not all or every. I was raised southern Baptist, yeah, Baptist's don't tend to go door to door, but they teach the same thing in idea: Only their belief is correct & everyone else is going to hell. I disagree, I'm glad they're happy with their belief but I don't see how anyone has the right to be forceful and rude about it, which many around where I live are. I didn't mean to imply that ALL Christians are this was, bc that is completely untrue, that's like saying that ALL Christians are hypocritical, it's just MOST or MANY. Things cannot be always or never, there is always an exception. :)
