well, number 1 i can hardly understand wat you said, and number 2, im goin to heaven, and evidently, "some of us" arent. I will definitely pray for you, because i no this makes you mad, but if you dont believe in God, then youll regret it the day he comes back for us. Explain the Bible, if God isnt real, then why do we have a bible? And how in the world were we created if God wasnt real? Please explain that to me, because I just dont get it how Non-believers walk around in the world everyday and dont have second thoughts about God. Please, whoever you are, and who ever hears this, give me a chance because it hurts me too see the many people alive today that dont believe. I mean, you gotta have faith, our God is real. I know you think im a freak, but i dont care. I want everyone alive today to go to heaven, i wanna see every person lift their hands up too the Savior and say God, Forgive me! I wanna see people get saved, and pray, I just wish I could get everyone to give this man a chance. That day the Jesus was beaten to death, he was thinkin about you. He died for you, and all you have to show for it is nothin. you dont even believe in him! Just please, read the bible, pray that God will give you the strength to bacome a Believer.

I don't think that you are a freak. I am a believer just like you.It hurts me too to think that in today's world, people are losing their faith in God.There are just about a handful of believers like you and me today. What you are doing is just right.I too pray every day for these prodigal children that they might be saved and turn towards God. Don't lose hope.Trust God and find your way in Jesus.Keep reading the Holy Book and pray that you might have the answers to the questions put forward by the non-believers about God.

" I will definitely pray for you, because i no this makes you mad, but if you dont believe in God, then youll regret it the day he comes back for us. "
If I do not believe in God--because you cannot prove to me that he exists--then what makes you think I'll believe he's coming back for anyone? You can't prove that, either.
"Explain the Bible, if God isnt real, then why do we have a bible? "
We have a Bible for the same reason we have the Torah, the Quran, the Vedas, and any number of other holy books and religious writings--it is the work of humans who believed there are gods that control everything. Are you saying that God wrote all those other things, too, just because they exist? How does the Bible prove the existence of God? ANYONE can write ANYTHING in a book and claim it came from God. Why should I care what they claim?
" And how in the world were we created if God wasnt real?"
You need to check some science books out of the library and visit some REAL science websites so that you will learn about evolutionary processes and the discoveries that are continually being made in the world of paleoarcheology, biology, astronomy, etc. Educating yourself is not that hard if you are willing to put in the time and effort.
"Please explain that to me, because I just dont get it how Non-believers walk around in the world everyday and dont have second thoughts about God."
It's real easy to not think about that which doesn't exist. I don't think very much about unicorns, pixies, dragons, leprechauns, the Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus, or the Great Pumpkin, either, and nothing bad has come of it.
"Please, whoever you are, and who ever hears this, give me a chance because it hurts me too see the many people alive today that dont believe. I mean, you gotta have faith, our God is real. I know you think im a freak, but i dont care."
If he is real, then why do you need faith? Faith is for people who don't KNOW. Knowledge is for people who can see and experience what is true and therefore do not need faith.
" I want everyone alive today to go to heaven, i wanna see every person lift their hands up too the Savior and say God, Forgive me! I wanna see people get saved, and pray, I just wish I could get everyone to give this man a chance."
Why do you feel the need to do God's work for him? If God exists, and he wants everyone to believe in him, then why doesn't he make everyone believe in him so that you don't have to? How hard could that be, for someone who allegedly created the entire universe in 6 days? The fact that you need to proselytize shows that your god is weak and doesn't care...or that he is non-existent. Take your pick.
"That day the Jesus was beaten to death, he was thinkin about you. He died for you, and all you have to show for it is nothin. you dont even believe in him! Just please, read the bible, pray that God will give you the strength to bacome a Believer."
Jesus Christ never existed. Outside the Bible, there is virtually nothing written about him, despite his allegedly having been God on Earth, performing miracles and making dead men rise from their graves. But even if he did, so what? He lived for untold eons in heaven, came to Earth for a few decades--a paltry amount of time, compared to eternity--suffered a little pain, then floated back up to heaven. What did Jesus lose that he could never get back? That is what a sacrifice is. If God owns everything, and Jesus was God, then what could he possibly give up that he couldn't get back? The pain he suffered was NOTHING. There are abused children who suffer far worse pain than he did, and they live with it for years and years, not just a few hours. Every day, 30,000 children die from starvation and disease, suffering far more pain than Jesus ever did. Really, I am not at all impressed with Jesus' alleged "sacrifice." If he wants me to be a believer, he will have to do better than that.

Wow you are a firm believer and you seem to be very compassionate towards others> You will make it to heaven all right. What I don't understand is if God is all forgiving why do you have to beg him for forgiveness. I mean if you have done something wrong and you know you are wrong and you are remorseful shouldn't that be enough to get you into "heaven"? I myself am not a religious person but if there is a heaven I think all most everyone should be able to go with out begging.

Faith: Belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence.
This is the dictionary defintion of faith. As an athiest, empiricist and all around free thinker, I require logical proof or material evidence that the christian God, or any other supernatural being exists. The bible was written by man for man and is not evidence of the existence of God. It is a guideline for behavior toward God and others.

First, Jesus was crucified not beaten to death.Second the Bible was written by ordinary men.There were gospels left out of the bible because they were considered to controversial at the time a group of men got together to decide what to put in it.Why are the excluded gospels considered any less holy than the others?Men decided what would be in the Bible and left out anything that contradicted their beliefs.

Translated;
- you're going to hell and I'm not
- I'm too stupid to understand how a rediculous book could have been written by ignorant ancient men
- I've never contemplated how god could have created anything without the pre-existence of space and time.
- I have no rational reason for my beliefs so I emplore you to just belief without rational reason as well
- I'm insane and I know it
- Some guy you don't know died for crimes you hadn't yet committed to save you from the torture he himself will administer unless you believe the nonsense I'm telling you
- Go read that rediculous book becuase I desperately need affirmation that my beliefs are right

I'm with you 100%. The non-believers want to go to hell because they'll have a lot of friends there and they can all be together. Your best bet is to seek one person at a time, face to face which is the way its usually done. On the internet you can't expect to get anywhere with non-believers. You've done your part. You got the Word out. Don't be discouraged!

Did it every occur to you that only the faithful will see god when he returns - that the rest of us simply won't see him. And instead of going to play with red horned devils with pitchforks, we will just stay here and keep on living while the faithful are transported to heaven? Maybe being snubbed by god on judgement day is enough to count as hell.
Wouldn't that would out great for all of us? Peace!

What you have written is something really beautiful and full of faith, I know that there many people who doesn't believe in what the Bible say, but in my opinion if something is in the Bible I believe in that.

Don't be discouraged sister. Many will not except Christs love for them. Just remain steadfast in the faith and Almighty God will guide your every step. I too know how much it hurts to see people blaspheme and insult and ridicule the one who saved my life. But I know that He went through it all too. Remember His words, "'A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will also keep yours." (John 15:20)
