Chose to believe in Jesus Christ now....
Rather than be punished with eternal torment and separation from God when that great and terrible Day of the Lord comes?
God has proven Himself over and over again to us....just look at a new born baby.......just look at the trees in New England in the fall.....just look at a rainbow after a storm which reminds us of His promise in Genesis after the flood......
Trust in Him now while you still have life. Wouldn't you rather do so now?

Um....Don H.....
I thought you were on our side. What are you, one of those crazy scientologists or something?

I don't think I'm a good person. That's why I trust in Christ to save me on that Day. And my job is to take as many with me to that promised place as I can.....wanna come? God loves you too.

I agree with you completely.
You are one of about 2% here that have a grip on the TRUTH.
You know these people though, they'll find ANY excuse to worship themselves.

Wow! Primo,
All of this in just 49 minutes!
Some people are really grasping. I think you hit some raw nerves.
There are so many things that I as a 58 year old wish that I had never ever done. But the ONLY thing that I regret not having done sooner is drawing near to the LORD.
Even a bitterly cold day in New England without those glorious leaves on the trees proves to me that God IS!
Thank you for asking.

*sigh* You haven't been on this site for very long, have you? Do you not realize why Pascal's Wager is an ineffective argument for belief in your god?
"God has proven Himself over and over again to us....just look at a new born baby"
...so you become a human Xerox machine and that proves God exists? No. Reproduction is a natural thing, all creatures on this planet do it.
"just look at the trees in New England in the fall"
Trees prove God exists? Now you're just grasping at straws, skippy.
"just look at a rainbow after a storm which reminds us of His promise in Genesis after the flood......"
Ah, the global flood myth.
The Bible doesn't prove anything, skippy. It's a BOOK. It no more proves the existence of your god than Harry Potter proves the existence of Voldemort.
"Trust in Him now while you still have life. Wouldn't you rather do so now?"
I'd rather you tone down your sales pitch, because this site isn't a venue for you to preach. I don't know when you Christians are going to realize that.

Why do you insist that your god is a boogy man? Isn't that blasphamy? Are you god? then how can you judge others? Maybe you think you care or you are a good person. But if you only beleive in god because babies are born and trees grow tall, I would, if I were you look at a science book. They are full of explainations of such things.
I don't need a fear of God to be a good person - I just am. In your case, I am really glad their is religion to keep people like you in check.

Wow! I would say "Wouldn't you rather admit that there is such a lack of proof that any god ever existed, that it'd be better to make the most of the life you have NOW, while you have it?"
If "God" exists he has FAILED to prove himself over and over again....just look at all the diseases, the poverty, the war, the death, the baby's that are born genetically sick....
A better question would be "Why do you believe?" Is it because your parents told you so? They also told you Santa Claus, the easter bunny and the tooth fairy were real too...

my answer is the same it has always been: If I have to share heaven with a bunch of wingnuts like you I'd rather spend eternity in hell. Also, I don't believe either exists.
".just look at a new born baby.......just look at the trees in New England in the fall.....just look at a rainbow after a storm "
Yes, isn't NATURE beautiful? Only ignoramuses need to say "god did it"

You people and your faulty logic and Pascal's Wager. You've been a member on this board far too long to NOT have seen this same lame question asked hundreds of times. So why bother asking a weak question again? I pity you.

Oh Puhleease!..... Get a real life. Anybody that offers punishment as a result for not doing things their way is just a bully and not worth the time of day

Any god that sends a person to hell solely because of their choice of religion -- and ignores every other positive aspect of their character -- is not a god I'm going to worship. Period.

Your unthinking adherence to theological dogma will seperate you from God-you made your choice. Don't say you weren't warned when the time comes to account for your actions.

You poor thing.
You actually believe that Gods love for us is so fickle?
Lucky for you that the lies religion tell about God are not true.
Oh ye of little faith.
Love and blessings Don
