Those that have heard of God, or the Lord and savior, and do not recognize him as being such, are being blinded by the Devil, who hopes they NEVER come to know God. That's the ultimate goal of the Devil. So, those people have ot be witnessed to by Christians, have to see by our example what a blessed life can be like, then God will begin dealing with their hearts and draw thim to him.

I know full well that you and your ilk believe God/Jesus is our Savior, I just don't agree with you. Science is the only Savior there is for mankind, but unfortunately Stupid People outnumber scientists by about a million to one.

I think it has to do with free will; if we all were just robots I think this world would be boring. Besides in the Bible one of the Apostles praised the Greeks in one town because they had a statue dedicated to the "Unnamed God", and he said that they would be granted access into Heaven because their faith was as strong or stronger than his (I do not remember which it is). I also can not remember the exact part of the New Testament it is in sorry. We are not God or The Creator, so we as mortals can not condemn someone because they have a different faith then we do. My Gaea Bless You, So blessed be.

Because one of the traits that He gave us is the ability to make our own decisions. He made it to where we could choose one way or the other. Most people believe in God, it's just a matter of what they call it, be it Allah, God, or Jahova. Muslims, Jews, and Christians are all believers in the same God, it's just what we are tought about His followers that make us different. When the rapture comes, the ones that believe don't have to worry about the others... they've sealed their fate.

Alot of people don't want to give up their way of life for something they can't understand or see. They are afraid to give up control. Actually, none of us really has control of anything, some just don't understand that.
Some people have been turned off to knowing God by other humans who have given God a bad name. So what people are really rejecting is what they have seen in some people who call themselves Christians, but don't really live out a Godly, loving example.

Well, as believers" a child of God" we all are called to tell of God's word. Unfortunately,some Christians don't get out of there "comfort" zones and tell of what he has done for them& Just who God is....And there is people who has been told of God, but chooses not to believe...If u don't believe,u can't have Christ as your personal savior...

Of course, this is only my thought, but, I think, as a Christian,most Christians,(including ME),don`t spread the good news the way we were meant to.The very word "Christian" means "Christ-like"...part of being a Christian is sharing the news of the gift God offers us,any of us.But people can`t know if others don`t help them learn!This is SUCH an honor for us..to be given such an opportunity to help lead people to Christ,but,so few of us do it,or even try to do it....(how often do you say to your peers anything,including the simple statement "God is good"?I know I don`t...not enough,anyway.We have the privilege of leading our friends in to the most beautiful gift ever offered.Eternal life with God.We all need to move it along faster...I think we all think there`s LOTS of time for that..none of us know when,though.Do you want your friends and family, your co-workers and fellow students spending eternity in Heaven...or in Hell? Those are the ONLY 2 options available,after all. : ) From my heart to yours.......! : )

Many are called, few are chosen. That simple. Rejoice if you are one that already knows Him as Savior. If not, seek Him with all your heart, mind, soul and strength and ask Him to be so. He will. That simple.

Don't waste too much time worrying about what other people believe. It should not matter to you. There are billions of people in the world and hundreds of different religions and beliefs and you can't waste your time thinking or wondering why they don't all believe what you believe.
You believe what you want, and they believe what they want.
That is the way it works.
