Young Pastor with your heart in the right place: God is not a thief that He would steal the hearts of man. Accepting Jesus as our Lord and Savior is a choice that each one of us must make from the heart.
As you can tell from most of the questions and answers here very few people are ambiguous about how they feel about God. It is to those people you should share the Gospel of Jesus. Show them hope and the promise of salvation.
Be blessed in your walk with God. I am.

I am saved, and I commend your effort. However, it is true that you are not asking a question, so it is a bit difficult for people to answer it. If you wish to share Christ through this means, I recommend that you answer questions. Personally I never ask questions here. Or at least not yet. If I find a question I can't find an answer for, maybe I will. It is critical for a Christian to find means to teach people of God's love, and to show them that he wants and requires a relationship with him. As you can probably tell from some of the responses you have and are bound to continue to receive, not all people are open. Not all people understand the high calling. As a pastor you are in a unique position of authority, which will be revered by some and despised by others. Your authority is not your own, it is your Father in heaven's. You are here to do his work. He has called you because he wants to use you as an instrument to fulfill his will. Don't lose heart, being a pastor is very hard. But God is stronger than your greatest affliction.

not a question and you are in the wrong place must are saved and right with God who are in this section. people can live good lives and go to heaven without donating or going to your church. God is forgiving and mercyful just cause i might not be "saved doesnt mean I wont go to heaven just means that I might think God exist or maybe God doesnt exsit. Which I think is reasonably to ask and think about. and other answer right, poor evangelistic attempt. If your Catholic im changing my name and changing to my own religion

only a young pastor.. if you are one.. would get on answers and make such a request..without explaining how to get right with GOD. so i dont believe you are who you say you are.. it is the duty of the pastor to show the way and to give his congregation the tools to work with. you have only caused a lot of foolish people to make foolish remarks..about something they dont understand. others felt the need to defend their relationship with GOD and their religion. so this was a very unproductive request.

I answered another of your questions with the assumption that you wanted to simply share your beliefs, which make you happy. That you didn't necessarily want to convert those who have different belief systems, and are happy with those beliefs. I'm sad to say, it appears I was wrong.
I am right with God. But it's a loving God. A God that would never judge, no matter what church I go to (or even if I go to church). Apparently this is a different God than yours.

Nice try pastor, but it takes a lot to get people to change the way that they think and believe.
It takes personal time, and they have to see the need before they will do it.
May God bless your efforts.

Well, as a fellow Christian, I'll pray for your ministry. Don't be discouraged that people will not turn to God, that is between them and their Lord. Keep doing what the Lord calls you to do: live in Christian love so that all may know Jesus through you. That is the best way to turn people toward Christ.

Seriously , I wonder what your afraid of.
You have to try to understand why people have turned away . Don't let yourself be one who causes people to turn from God.
If you will just show others that you love them and show God you love him ( you do love God?).
Do you have children if so remember the love you feel for them because God loves you a million times more. He loves all of us and wants us to love him and each other the same way.

I am saved but not by a mythical god, you are your own god, looking further than that shows an insecurity within your own personality.
