...to pray for Jesus to enter their heart?

Are you so caught up in preaching, you ignore the human reality all around you? Is preaching your only answer for human tragedy and misery? Would you rather quote scripture than touch someone? Would you rather pontificate over God's wondrous miracles than embrace a poor, stupid ant, alone and weary.

Have you grown so caught up in your rituals that you have forgotten the lesson of the Samaritan?

It would seem that this is true, given they had even heard the story of the Samaritan in the first place. Compassion is not the foundation of religion anymore it would seem.

The stance of being an Atheist is telling me which you're a guy of religion, considering you have a deep concept on your individual opinion without pondering the logical sense of God. Even scientists have issued statements approximately how this would be a answer to each little thing, the enormous bang blanketed. in spite of the undeniable fact that I fail to be certain what faith has to do with Santa because of the fact the relationship between St. Nicolaus and what's taught to infants is now changedd and commericalized to the paoint that it quite is totally a delightful fantasy tale to fascinate little childrens and produce human beings togehter in love. So in case you sense it quite is incorrect, it quite is you own conflict with defining who you're as a youthful guy, and wanting to chop up your self from formative years to be common as an person. this would be a organic progression and a point of your own emotional strengthen and the interior conflict that one and all youthful men face. A mature thank you to handle it quite is to sell love and kindness via being an stunning brother and accepting your little sister and your mum and dad. once you become a discern you will quite savour the conflict and the moments of love and exhilaration. mutually because it would desire to be consumer-friendly to break it quite is lots nobler to step as much as the plate and be sort and gentle. it is being a real guy.

I guess you don't bother researching what the Christian community does since the liberal media won't tell you. The Church sends billions of dollars to 3rd world countries to feed and teach children, they build hospitals where doctors volunteer to help these people. The church sent millions of dollars to the gulf coast for the hurricane victims, they sent generators, clothes, water, food ,blankets, etc. So the next time you want to make such an assumption, why don't you do the research first before making an *** out of yourself.

This does not make any sense. Christians are some of the most loving caring people that are out there. Of course we are not going to preach to a poor child. We are going to gather that child in our arms and get them a blanket and warm meal. Then we are going to tuck them into a nice comfortable bed. And THEN wake up the next morning and bring them to church with us. LOL!

There will always be someone in need, I tell you the TRUE Christians are out there doing for people that have needs, watch when they show truck loads of food being dropped off for the hungry, or watch when the blood drive comes to your home town, I don`t know where you live, but where I live I see Christians doing what they are suppose to do, Don`t assume that everyone you see going into a Church Building is a Christian, Satan plants his people there too, and for good reason, he wants all those who don`t go to Church to see the ones he planted going in and doing evil, so the world can call Christains HYPOCRITES.

I think good Christians do both. When someone is a true Christian, they find a way to put faith into action. Thank you for your question. We all need to remember that there are people with real, basic needs in this world, in our own country, who don't know where their next meal is coming from. There are children who are neglected or abused. And you are right, I have seen many people who have been blessed with much, and give little of themselves. It isn't good enough to be a pew warmer. We should all think about that, and act.

You have a point, there is a homeless hostel in London that wakes everyone up in the middle of the night to praise the lord

I can't talk for the Christians, but I think they would do the morel thing and call the police, then preach

Um, a lonely ant? Or do you mean to say, we don't recognize so-called nonbelievers' good works as well? I think everyone who believes in kindness is already a believer, whether they know it or not.

Nice rant... too bad there wasn't a REAL question in there.

As I often say "Going to church doesn't make one a Christians any more than standing in a garage makes one a car."
