Another false hope for Christians...?

Question

I asked earlier for everyone to imagine that EVERYONE in the world becamse Christian.
Then one person said:

"Very soon it IS going to be that way."

Do any other chrsitians agree with this garbage?
Then can you explain why the number of Atheists/Agnostics/Nonbelievers in God continues to increase?
And countires Sweden and Denmark have up to 80% of their population not believing in a god?

I think Christians will have to face it, the whole world will NEVER be Christian, and the statistics prove this.

Answer 1

Eventually, as our knowledge of the world increases, Christianity, if not all religion, will become obselete.

Answer 2

I'm really hoping all religions will fade off, so that we can focus on the things that f_cking matter like finding a new world to inhabit and a way of getting there in a reasonable amount of time.

Or at least a way to re-terraform the earth back into a better place to live when the pollution gets too bad.

Religion is a false hope and a distraction.

Answer 3

Well my friend, keep looking up because our "Redemption draweth nigh". Very soon it IS going to be that way, hope you are a part of it along with everyone else. God does NOT want to see ANY of His Children to Perish, and neither do I, BUT it is a fact that some WILL.

This was my answer AND it included WHY I answered the way I did. I said NOTHING against you OR anyone else. As a matter of fact I stated that I HOPED you would BE a part of this 'world where there was no one but Christians, and like God I did not want to see anyone to Perish either." What happened, did I step on some toes, OR was it God doing the stepping through the Holy Spirit? The next time you want to Quote me, please use the WHOLE Answer instead of ONE line. That is like some who take the Word of God and use ONE Verse to twist it around to suit their situation. As Christ has said, "because they have Persecuted ME, they will Persecute you too, and IF they have kept my saying, they WILL keep yours also"

Answer 4

First I am from Sweden.....your facts are mis-represented....80% of the people do not go to church...that is not the same as not believing in God. Our society very much believes in God and pray on a daily basis......one does not mean the other....

The statement that world is going to be all Christian is concerning the second coming of Christ in the Christian belief, and that he will reclaim the world which is now the domain of Satan.

For a better understanding of what the Christian is saying to you read the Left Behind book series.....it is entertaining and thought provoking for either view point....

Answer 5

Calm down, Muslims also think that someday the world will be all muslim. And actually if you look at the birth rates in Sweden and Denmark, if those non-believers don't start mass producing kids, they are gonna get over run by muslims and forced to convert so at least the muslims may be right.

Answer 6

The christians that think the whole world will be christian and those who flaunt the fact that christians are a majority in the US might want to think a little on that and read up.Jesus said that

Mat.7 13Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

14Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.

seems to me if they are with the majority,they might want to rethink where they are standing

Answer 7

Hardly anybody is really Christian.

1 Corinthians 11:17 In the following directives I have no praise for you, for your meetings do more harm than good. 18 In the first place, I hear that when you come together as a church, there are divisions among you, and to some extent I believe it. 19 No doubt there have to be differences among you to show which of you have God's approval. 20 When you come together, it is not the Lord's Supper you eat, 21 for as you eat, each of you goes ahead without waiting for anybody else. One remains hungry, another gets drunk. 22 Don't you have homes to eat and drink in? Or do you despise the church of God and humiliate those who have nothing? What shall I say to you? Shall I praise you for this? Certainly not!

James 5:1 Now listen, you rich people, weep and wail because of the misery that is coming upon you. 2 Your wealth has rotted, and moths have eaten your clothes. 3 Your gold and silver are corroded. Their corrosion will testify against you and eat your flesh like fire. You have hoarded wealth in the last days.

James 2:5 Listen, my dear brothers and sisters: Has not God chosen those who are poor in the eyes of the world to be rich in faith and to inherit the kingdom he promised those who love him? 6 But you have dishonored the poor. Is it not the rich who are exploiting you? Are they not the ones who are dragging you into court? 7 Are they not the ones who are blaspheming the noble name of him to whom you belong?

Answer 8

read the last page of the book
after Jesus comes back and reigns for 1000 years it will become rather hard not to 'accept the data' and 'face the maker of the reality we experience'

hard, but still even in the most perfect of worlds
Satan will be loosed for a little while and there will be enough people without saving grace as there will be a rebellion against Him near the end of the 1000 years There is an eternity of difference between 'believing' data about Jesus or facts about God and having a saving faith where you bank on, lean on and treasure the truths of the Lord, glorifying God as you lean on the work of Jesus on the cross believing for eternal life

but in the eternal way after that everyone in the New Jerusalem will be believers and unbelievers are metaphorically 'outside the gates of the city'

false hope? nuthin false about it

Answer 9

And once upon a time there where dinosaurs which are now extinct who where superseded by mammals. In time some of these mammals became human who became Christians.

What makes you think that any one who isn't Christian today may not become the dinosaur of tomorrow??????

Answer 10

I'm not sure who said that...but that person has no understanding of scripture. Jesus said that his way was a narrow road and that, actually, few would enter the kingdom.

Does that sound like EVERYONE is going to be Christian? I believe that person misunderstands scripture.

Answer 11

"statistics prove this" - yes dear, statistics always prove things. Were you aware that 80% of all statistics are flawed? lol

But seriously, no, not everyone will be a Christian, Jesus never intended it to be that way, He said so Himself:

"But you believe not, because you are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me"

That clearly indicates that if He has taken the time to divide people between His flock and not His flock, then obviously some are not His flock.
