You aren't even aware that his post was likely directed straight at you. You make it impossible to have an "intellectual" discussion with other believers and non believers. You constantly taunt, tease and (most offensive of all) actually seem to laugh and make jokes at the prospect of other humans spending eternity in hell. Just horrible.

Like Tommie, I am very passionate about my beliefs and make no apologies for it. But that passion causes me to defend my religion against the hateful fire and brimstone that you represent. Eye and beam, Bill Gray. Eye and beam.

Hi Sofa,

You cannot show me anywhere that I have laughed at the prospect of anyone spending eternity in hell. Such a prospect makes me cry inside -- for, like our Lord, I would pray that everyone would be saved. However, we do know from the Bible that this is not possible -- for human nature and false teachers will lead many down the wrong path. Please show me where I have laughed and made jokes about a person being unsaved.

You say you are passionate about your RELIGION. I am passionate about my RELATIONSHIP with Jesus Christ; I do not have a religion. And, if you consider it hateful for me to quote Jesus Christ when He tells us, in John 3:3, "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God" or to quote the apostle John when He tells us, in John 3:36, "He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he who does not obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him."

In 1 John 5:12 we read, "He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life."

Am I being hateful to share these Scripture passages with non-believers? No, I believe that I love them enough to want to share the Truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ with them -- in the hopes that some will be saved. If that is not your goal, do not argue with me -- take it up with the Lord.

God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,

Bill
