No, because he set it all up to work out that way...
(Romans 9:22: "vessels of wrath made for destruction")
We get smashed up to provide the necessary contrast.

Nope, He will blame those who did not listen even when they were told. Such as you. This blame is not a mocking blame, it is a sad thing that He does not want to do. He tried to tell you. The good news is, once He starts doing miracles again, you'll have another chance to join Him. Its going to cost you everything, literally, but you will see it for yourself....assuming you survive long enough.

We just sow the seed, you provide the soil.
Matthew 13
The Parable of the Sower
1That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. 2Such large crowds gathered around him that he got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people stood on the shore. 3Then he told them many things in parables, saying: "A farmer went out to sow his seed. 4As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. 5Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. 6But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. 7Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. 8Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop—a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown. 9He who has ears, let him hear."
10The disciples came to him and asked, "Why do you speak to the people in parables?"
11He replied, "The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to you, but not to them. 12Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him. 13This is why I speak to them in parables:
"Though seeing, they do not see;
though hearing, they do not hear or understand. 14In them is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah:
" 'You will be ever hearing but never understanding;
you will be ever seeing but never perceiving.
15For this people's heart has become calloused;
they hardly hear with their ears,
and they have closed their eyes.
Otherwise they might see with their eyes,
hear with their ears,
understand with their hearts
and turn, and I would heal them.'[a] 16But blessed are your eyes because they see, and your ears because they hear. 17For I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.
18"Listen then to what the parable of the sower means: 19When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. This is the seed sown along the path. 20The one who received the seed that fell on rocky places is the man who hears the word and at once receives it with joy. 21But since he has no root, he lasts only a short time. When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away. 22The one who received the seed that fell among the thorns is the man who hears the word, but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke it, making it unfruitful. 23But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the word and understands it. He produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown."

God gave you the same free will and the same message of redemption that He gave to us Christians.
If we Christians can be convinced of God, why can't you?
The problem is not with God or with Christians.
Your problem is in the mirror.

No, of course not- For Romans 1:20 tells you you are without excuse, for not knowing His existence.
And the gospel is being shared everyday....those who refuse to listen, well ---they have brought it upon themselves sadly.
But we who are saved, are not to shove it down your throat- we walk away, when you turn your ear away from His wonderful truth, and then we just pray that someday you will receive it! There is nothing more important!

More likely he will blame them for wasting so much time trying to convince you.

Accept Christ as your Savior, if you cannot do that are will not do that it is your own dimiss. You have heard the truth you choose to deny it. That is not our problem.
