Christians do not condemn anyone to hell. People choose where they will go, but I see that people keep saying that Christians condemn them to Hell??? Why.
Mat 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.

People condemn themselves to hell by what they do and the choices they make, peoples lives are in their hands. The only opinion that really matters is Gods, when it's your time.

It's like in the old days. When the messenger got sent to the king to tell him that things were going badly in the battlefield, the king often was so angry that he killed the messenger. It's not the messenger's fault but the messenger gets blamed.
None of us has the ability to save or condemn anyone. The only on who has that power is God. And He's waiting for our answers. Some of us have answered, some have gone back on our word, some are trying to decide and some have rejected Him. And everyone’s ultimate reward or penalty will be based on his/her own decision. Not mine nor anything I said. I'm just the messenger. But the messenger gets still gets blamed.

The people who say that don't understand that it isn't the Christian who condemns them. After death there are only two locations for the soul, heaven and hell. If they choose not to accept the free gift of eternal life that God gives through his son Jesus, they are choosing to go to hell. Unfortunately, most people are in denial and think that either Christians are lying or deluded or that God wouldn't really do that to someone. They think that because God is love that it means he won't allow people to go to hell. Others think that God must be a horrible, vengeful Deity if he would allow "innocent" people to go to hell. They don't realize that no one is righteous in and of themselves, especially not Christians. I guess all we can do is try to spread the good news to as many people as possible and let God move in people's lives as only He can.

Some people say Christians condemn them because many of them do in an effort to do their part to warn others the wages of sin is death. If they studied further, they will see that Jesus did not condemn anyone. So, be patient with them. They still have a lot of learning to do to let the mind of Christ Jesus be in them, too.

Theres a difference between "you are going to hell!" and "according to scripture no one comes to the father except through the son,"
Chrsitians do say you are going to hell. Some not all.
Christians do quote the Bible - some not all.
For the most part, when a person says heh christians tell me im going to hell, most humans understand this to be a some not all implied.
Thanks for the opportunity to teach you about the implied disclaimer, of "some not all"

People generalize on this subject. They have another excuse to condemn Christians. They chastise us by saying we are trying to be God and God is our ultimate judge yet the ones who make these claims say they don't believe in God. Unfortunately,some Christians make these accusations against other Christians. I haven't told anyone that they were going to Hell unless I was asked about my faith and have given them what God have written without condemning but with facts and lwith love.
Shalom

Here I am following great teachers. When we read the Bible we find that certain things will result in ones arriving in hell and we should warn the folks about that. But we should not say like "go to hell" we should say "go to heaven with me" and it will be a blessing instead of cursing.
Although Jesus did say this below.
Mat 23:33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?

Are you calling Christians or atheists great ignorant??? in any case, atheists might want to keep in mind that the Christians which have "condemned them to hell" are a very small team of RADICAL people. i'd even hesitate to call them Christians. they don't look proclaiming the message of love that Jesus teached.

Because there are a lot of loud, extremist Christians that have communication problems. There are people who call themselves Christian, but judge others and say things in anger. They have not learned that we must reach out with love.
The loudest people are assumed to be the majority, but this is hardly ever the case.
God bless you.

There seem to be a lot of Christians, they say, that seem to get some kind of perverse pleasure in telling people that question them that they are going to be condemned to hell.

becaus people condemn them to their hell, there is no real hell, so when they say 'poor ole you, yer goin' to hell to bhern whit the deeemons'
they are condemning them to hell, which it doesnt really matter because it doesnt really exist, byt by telling you that they are expressing either pity/hate/closing themselves to the truth
and that is what is annoying
its an statement you cant couinterargument with logic, since it has none to begin with, and if you try you're talking to a wall, they cant argument but with circular pseudo logic about an obsolet book
