Absolutely. That's supposed to be the whole motivation for spreading ones faith-- having a burden for lost people. If we didn't care, why would we bother?

Sad. My heart grieves for some of them. For whatever reasons, be it selfish or demonic, they are missing how great life can be when they let go and let God be God. So many things that bother them would simply vanish, like the sin in their lives that is separating them from God. I know that the Spirit uses people and places like Yahoo R&S to plant and water His word, and that some will be saved. Those who harden their hearts have made their decisions. All we can do is be the light, speak the word, share our testimony, in hope that someone's eyes will be open, and that the blind will finally see. If only they could know the joy and love of our awesome God, and of His amazing grace and mercy for them. Jesus still is the stumbling stone, the rock of offense, to those who are lost. As it is readily apparent on here, some are just too "smart" for their own good. May God continue to have mercy on their souls.

Yes, it's sad that an intelligent person refuses to see the truth.
They are afraid that if they see the truth and get saved, they will have to stop doing some of the things they think they like and they don't want to give it up. I have heard so much about us Christian trying to force our religion on them. Well no one is trying to force anything on anyone, We are only telling the good news about Christ, for He said to comfort one another with these teachings. Open your heart and give yourself a chance.

It's natural to want others to experience something that is so wonderful. I know God loves us all and He's feeling bad about those who are not saved, even though He knew the choices we would all make.
May God Bless you.

I am a Jew and I say "screw being saved." If that means believing the nonsense that Christians believe, I'll pass.

Well since the Lord came to save those that are Lost why would I feel bad for them. God came for THEM! I feel sorry for the people who think they are saved and find it neccessary to judge others.

No, not particularly. Perhaps God has a plan for their lives which includes being blinded to Him for a period of time.
I believe that anyone who knows what Love with a capital L is goes to Heaven. Anyone who knows God in whatever form He takes for them will be there and I look forward to eternity with all my brethren, be they Muslim, Jewish or Christian, or whatever religion they are.

I dont "feel bad", I care about them, and I know that God loves them, I can only hope that something I can say or do will show Gods love towards them, and they will see it.
