I can't think of anything that's not worth the salvation of another soul. There is a lot of garbage and needless bashing on this site. But I for one keep working with it for just that reason. Maybe some answer that God prompts me to provide might help someone take that step of faith or might help a fellow believer through a tough time. I do with though that my fellow Christians on this site wouldn't return barbs with those that chose to mis-use it. Leave them alone, and pray for them. They'll either come around or get bored and go somewhere else.

It will definitely be worth it to the person. But remember something here, it's not about the individual. It'salways about Jesus, first and foremost. We don't do God any favors by getting saved, we do ourselves a favor. Actually God does us the favor. I haven't been visiting this site for very long but I think I've seen enough of the stupid stuff people write to know what you're talking about. People's ignorance isn't going to make God any less God
I think our purpose as Christians is to preach the gospel so that those who hear will have been given the opportunity to accept Christ and allow God to come in and make things right in their lives. Whether or not they choose to do so is up to them. But they will hear and they will know and they will have no excuse. God is the most awesome, most powerful, most inexplicably amazingly beautiful Person there is. Being associated with God in any way is worth everything even if nobody gives their heart to Christ,.

When we give our live to Jesus that doesn't mean temptations go away. Tempation to worldliness is everywhere. Jesus told us flat out it would be hell on earth to follow him.
What is far worse than the anti-Christianity sentiment on this board, is the temptation that seems Christian.
All that is shiny is not all gold. We have to be most wary of what seems good but is not.
Like people flocking to an apparition. Have they even read about it to see if it's is good and pure and preaching God's word? Nope. Someone says Mary appeared and every body runs. There is very little discernment.
So fear the subtle temptation clothed in righteousness rather than the blatant temptation.

Yes, you never know when something you say will "get through" to someone. As they say 'God works in mysterious ways". Consider Lincolns "Gettysburg Address". It was supposed to be a simple speech and it has lasted over 150 years. You never know. So, yes, I think someones life will be changed by what is said on this forum.

When a person is brought to Christ it is indeed a joyous occasion, but the blasphemies on this site still wound the Sacred Heart.

I believe that if I can deliver one person from hatred it is worth all of the hate that has been thrown at me...

Any and all testimonies of Christ's mercy are worthwhile, no matter the outcome.

yes because it is one more for the kingdom and one is better than none!
