I'm trying to imagine dropping dead, and ending up sitting before God waiting on Judgement. God would ask me why I refused to become a Christian, and I would tell him that it never seemed rational to me. It seemed incomprehensible because of numerous reasons among those the Attonement concept of a Blood sacrifice to appease an angry God after the outrage in the Garden of Eden. The whole Christian thing just never hit home with me, and that is why I never became a Christian. Then I hear God say "sorry buddy but you are going to Hell for an eternity for not becoming a Christian". Then I cry my eye's out, and jump into the Lake of Fire. This would make an intereting movie don't you think ?

If your church doesn't run the plays, I'm sure they've got some movies, Jack Chick tracts, etc. on the same theme. [Chick tracts highly recommended for entertainment value.]

That would make a great bumber sticker if it was not so long. How about "Turn or Burn".
Originally posted by daniel58Obviously you can't lie. God knows all, and to lie would do you no good. Just tell the truth, and I'm sure with God's sense of great compassion He would understand how some of us heathens ended up. I can't seem to hold a grudge against anybody for long, and I'm sure God would not have hard feelings about something as small as not being a Christian. I understand it, and I'm sure He does too. I sure hope God is an understanding God, and not some God with an anger control problem.
Did you read my last post, I said you can't say anything.
Originally posted by buckkyIt's always possible to ask at least for the help to understand Christianity, even if you don't understand it, you can still become one, that's what Faith is for, there are some things I don't understand about it, and never will be able to but I Believe it because God said it's true.
I'm thinking claiming that I have a learning disability, and that's why I can't understand Christianity. Retarded people don't go to Hell do they ?

As for his judgements, I believe they will be just. Now where you fit in the mix ONLY God knows.

Odious man. If there were a hell, he would be a deserving candidate for it.
Originally posted by Conrau KWhy? Because he thinks the same about you? He claims however to believe about the same things as you (from my perspective) so if his beliefs warrant hell then why shouldn't yours?
