It is a lie perpetuated by churches. It is sad that even after 1500 years churches still have mind control over people.

I don't know where this comes from. I am a christian and I've never called a non-christian "no good" or anything else demeaning. I consider myself a sinner as everyone else with the exception that I am saved. I have the hope of eternal life. I have a peace and a happiness inside me that I didn't have before. I don't force my believes on others, I share them if I am asked. I try to live my life by example. I do pray for my friends, relatives and neighbors because I want them to have the same experience and hope. Sometimes, when they have problems they even ask to be prayed for. No doubt, there are non-Christians who are much nicer and kinder than some Christians and vice versa. It is not biblical to be rude or bad mouthed.

I think it is human nature,
The same way I get badmouthed for being a Christian.
And the same reason I get thumbs down for simply being a Christian.
Don't they realize that Christians are just like them who want to raise a family, keep or get a good job, enjoy friends and families and yes even go on vacation!?
Peace!

Christ did'nt bad mouth alll the non believers
but he did the Pharasees who they were Jn 8:44
Matt 23;15 ...two fold the child of hell...
He still loved them He just spanked their mind
We are the Judge and we do not put non believers down.

yeah but by doing all that (making a living) going on vactions and doing house work and all of that.. people are forgetting to thank the one that made all of this (GOD) the people who dont believe need to be judged because if they dont believe soon then when they die they will have to face hell. they NEED to believe to be saved and i get really sad about this stuff because i know that some people out there are never going to believe and it makes me think about how much they are going to wish they would have believed when they die and go to hell. if you are a nonbeliever who ever is reading this. i want you to picture this .. one if all when you die suddenly you find out that there is a god and only one. now im not saying for you benifet that there is a god but one IF only IF after you die there is a god and you have to be infront of him face to face and tell him your reason for not believing in him. one if you say. "well.. there was not enough prove of your being" one if he were to say did you not read the bible. now if you didnt read the bible then you caNT find any prove becaue you didnt look foe it. if you did read the bible THERE is prove. god spoke of all the the thing that would happen be4 the end of time. he talked about how the 9/11 hppend be4 it happend. he talked about how there WILL be people out there that wont believe in him. he talked about what us going on right now. and when you look around your house and around out side....you can truly say that there is no god? somthing had to of created all of this. what are you going to answer to that when you face him.

Visit a Church of Christ and they will tell you all you need to know. We wont force our opinions on you just state what we believe in and that following the New covenant in the New testament.

They are not bad people, but if they don't believe in Christ and have a relationship with him then they will go to hell when they die. There is no cookie cutter Christian we all believe in the same one but we have different personalities and lifestyles.

People don't go to hell for being good or bad, they go for denying that Jesus Christ is the son of God, and that he died for the sin of man. They don't repent of the sin of unbelief because their sins keep them from wanting to come into the light which is Jesus Christ.
