Does He wring His hands in hopes of my decision for Him?
Or is this all only a take-it-or-leave-it offer?
Or if it's both, can you give me your answer on a 1-10 scale?

You do not choose God, He chooses you. If you are of the elect, the called out ones, you will be saved. If not, you will be lost. Believe me, God is not worrying about your "decision", it was already made for you.

on a scale of 1-10, 0.
God has no "wants". God is perfection, and infinity. Infinity creates what it needs, it has no "wants". "Wants" imply something God doesn't have. There is nothing God doesn't have.
She does not wring her hands, she KNOWS you will accept her at the right time when you are ready.
It is not a take-it or leave-it offer, the offer does not expire. What would be the point of that?

I wouldn't count on God doing anything to get you to believe in him even if you really really wanted him to and needed him to.But plenty of people will tell you how much you need God and how much you should believe in God and how bad it will be if you don't.
Boy, isn't "faith" fun?The scale is better based on how bad the clergy wants you to believe and it is always a 10.They want you to follow their delusion and to contribute to their church.

God loves you - the door is open.
But He loves you so much that He leaves you with the freedom to walk away.
Humans put conditions on love - If you love me, you'll... whatever. And some try to re-create God in that image,.
Wrong. God wants you to come of your own free will, and the door is open and God is waiting...
but you have to walk through it

Considering this God knows everything and knew everything before anyone was ever around. That means this God knew when you first appeared where you would end up!
So no this God really doesn't care.
Where you go was deturmined long ago and what you do doesn't really matter.

Look god is fake. Religion is something created to keep everybody in line. A long time, they decided to create religion to advoid chaos. And the bible are just a bunch of fairy tales passed down from generation to generation. A story that is over 2000 years old is sure to be some what distorted. Where is your god when you need 'em?

God can give a hoot hoot about you, me or George Bush. The question is HOW MUCH do you want to accept God!

John3:16-" For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son so that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."He loves you that much.
