Also, why do they threaten non-believers with an eternal torture in a fiery hell? God is not cruel to do such a thing. Whatever happened to judge not lest ye be judged also? This will go to Jesus. Karma.

Do your position artwork of ALL *religions* and *peoples*... you'll discover lots of the *religions/peoples* of the historic days used that variety of *destruction* even as taking on a u . s ...... examine those verses very intently.... God is describing the brutality of the HUMAN aspect that has taken over the international, then and now.... Even today many countries will *homicide* the youngsters they think about a *burden* or criminal accountability...... seem into what India has done to itself by technique of *murdering* in basic terms about all the female little ones, born and unborn......

Because christians honestly believe that their God is the one true god. They don't "threaten" us with hell.. that's in their bible. They believe they are simply warning us to what lies ahead.. now, some will say something idiotic like "I can't wait til you burn in hell forever", but there are jerks in all faiths (or lack thereof).
They do not believe that there is more than one path to God.. they believe their way is the only way.. it doesn't make them right, nor does it mean that an all powerful creator would be this petty.
My advice to you is to not worry about what they think.. your beliefs are as valid (if not moreso) than theirs.
Many blessings on your path..

It is not what Christians say that matters.
it is what God says.
shooting the messenger does not negate the message.
God says that people who are not "born again" are already condemned (see below).
God is not cruel. That is correct.
God is fair and just.
He affords every person a way to avoid an eternity in Hell, if they will only accept His Gift of eternal life.
you do not have to work for it.
you do not have to pay for it.
God's Gift is free for the taking.
those who refuse to accept that gift condemn themselves to an eternity in Hell.
God does not send anyone to Hell.
all residents of Hell willl be there voluntarily, by their own choice.
The Creator has the right to judge His creations.
John 3: The Words of Jesus Christ (God in the flesh)
3. "Verily, I say unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God."
4. Nicodemus saith unto Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?"
5. Jesus answered, "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God."
6. That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7. Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again."
16. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17. For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.
18. He that believeth on Him is not condemned; but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."

Because they believe they have the ultimate answer to everything and are taught (conditioned) that everyone else must be wrong. Adn, yes they're very judgemental and want to prove their holiness over others all the time (like pushing prayer at public events and so on).

I'm not like that..O_O and I'm Christian. I guess some get pretty competitive at the mention of someone attacking God. Me? I don't attack others anymore. I either try to guide them or respect what they believe and leave them be. I know what you feel about those attacking you or everyone else but don't bunch up a group of people like that okay?:) I believe God loves everyone and gives a chance for everyone to be saved. He loves you and everyone else so don't feel so bad about it anymore! :D

If someone rejects Jesus Christ and the Truth of Him when presented correctly (when the Love of God Is present), that person is antichrist. Against Christ.
Jesus said that those who deny Him, He will deny before the Father and the Holy Angels.
Jesus warned of hell. But it isn't Gods will for any one to go there. Hell was created for the devil and his messengers.

As a Christian I have learned one very important thing. Don't teach me show me. I should be an example to the world. Many people who proclaim to be Christian's are not going to make it to heaven. Many of them are wolves in sheep clothing out to make a buck off of good decent people. There are many many good christian people out there who do what is right, in a very evil world. You have to be the one to want to come to the Lord, trying to beat that into people will turn them off and they will never want to come to the lord. God does not want anyone to go to Hell, he wants us to live our lives the right way, his way and to except his son as our lord and savior and to turn our hearts over to him. All you have to do is ask, and the door will be open to you. A hard heart that never opens will never know the love of God. You have to be the one to open your heart and to accept him, no one can do it for you. Just read the bible. As Christians we need to be a light to the lord. Jesus came to save the sinners not the sin-less, and we are all sinners and none of us are worthy to wear his shoes. But I know that when we accept him as our lord and savior and we turn are hearts around, heaven is there for us.

I wouldn't have worded it quite like that, but it's what the Bible says. True, it is your right to believe or not believe the Bible. But for those who do, it would be unfanthomable for them to keep this to themselves & not share it.

Those who are not with us are against us. The words of Christ. The Bible tells what God will do that you do not like it has no relevance.
