Jesus said "the one that rejecteth me, and recieveth not my words, hath one that judges them on the last day, the words that I have spoken." John 12vs48
Jesus describes the joy of heaven for those that recieve salvation (John 3) and the agony of hell -crying forever, gnashing teeth and torment -Revelation 19-22nd chapters
well a comparison-say you dont believe you will get hurt if you jump off a sky scraper-tall building-when they scrape you up-is it too late to change your mind???

Yes. Jesus said "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one can get to the Father but by me". In other words, you will not go to Heaven if you have not been saved. If you reject Jesus and His word, then you will spend an eternal life in Hell. If you have any questions, feel free to email me.

I read the Gospels and I see that Jesus preached a message of hope and love. I read the Gospels and I see how Jesus treated people from all walks of life, no matter what they might have done. As you read the Gospels, you can feel the love that Jesus had for people. The woman at the well is one my favorite stories. I draw so much inspiration from it.
Think about how Jesus spoke to the woman at the well, the tax collector, the woman who perfumed his feet, and ask yourself, "Am I spreading his message in a way that shows God's love and my love for those with whom I speak?"
God bless,
Laura

Well, the bible does say that creation testifies to a creator, and that all man has the knowledge that there is a God. No one will have any excuse if they stand before the White Throne Judgment. They cannot say "I didn't know" because at least at one time in everyones life they are presented the Truth, and they choose to reject or embrace it.

IF there is a Messiah and I choose not to believe in him, when I die and IF there is a pearly gate and IF he is as loving as some believe, then he will forgive me. Until then, I choose to believe that a god who would allow pedophiles and child abusers and child murderers to roam the planet is NOT worth believing in.
And don't tell me all about free will, IF he can part the red sea, he can save a child from torture.

u cant blame them, some people feel free(and smart oftentimes) when they dont beleive on God. cuz they are free to do anthing they wish without being struck by their conscience.
they have bad past/experience with people who preach to them about the bible (they see the hyprocrisy maybe?) so they gave up their belief in God.
if only they see what the bible teach not the imperfect follower maybe they'll stay. heck if evryone juz follow the bible 100% we'll all be saints

Oy....some people will just never understand!!!
You are comparing something very real that could happen (people jumping off a skyscraper) to something THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN BECAUSE THERE IS NOT A HEAVEN/HELL/JESUS/GOD/MESSIAH/DANIEL, and whatever else you can pull out of your bible.
There is NO comparison. It's like comparing the Kentucky Derby winner to a unicorn.

You know it's really simple, but people try to make it complicated, repent, ask for forgiveness, and ask Jesus Christ to come into your heart and you're going to heaven, otherwise, you're going to hell.

If you are preaching Christianity--------don't you realize that with your ranting and raving, you are turning people away from it. You sound like some holier than thou fanatic. That is a real turn off!

You must accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior before you die. Once you die, it is too late.
