Why are you doing this to yourself?

Encourage you to Put the Full Armor of God on {Eph. 6:10-18), and through diligently praying - Pull down the demonic strongholds {by the power of The Holy Spirit) that are over unbelievers eyes through spiritual warfare {please read 2 Cor. 10:3-5) - then The Holy Spirit will soften their hearts to Receive Jesus as Lord and Savior{to be Born Again - Jn. 3:3
We wrestle not against flesh & blood {that is people - but we Walk in the Fruits of The Holy Spirit toward them, & pray for those who persecute us), but we wrestle against principalities, powers, ruler of the darkness of this world.
They will never stop running from God - until we as laborers together with God, pray for them - pulling down the strongholds of satan. *It is our responsibility to pray - pull down those spiritual & mental strongholds that the enemy has over their spiritual eyes - so that they can clearly see their need for Jesus.
Encourage you to keep sharing the gospel with people - for that is our calling - to fulfill the Great commission in life but it is also our calling to Pray for them in this way as Eph. 6:10-18 teaches us.
May God continue to help you Grow in His Grace and Wisdom through His Holy Word.

Well, which God are you talking about? Christian God? The one that created us for his play-things? Isn't it funny how before we're even born, according to him, we're going to Hell... Oh, and who's read the Old Testament... seriously, it is scary, I mean, that story about Job, God killed his family and his herd, just to win a freaking bet. Haha, funny. So no, I do not follow the Christian God. I do follow the Goddess and the God. That way, if I do something wrong, I get punished for doing that thing, and if I do something good, I get something good in return. No endless suffering in Hell for being born. But yeah, the Christian God of love? He is of hypocrisy and of judgement. You strive to be like your God, which is why you act as if just because you are Christian, you are automatically right, and that there is no greater wisdom than what is in this centuries old book written by MEN. If your God loves us, then stop judgeing the people that will not follow him... Have a nice day :)

There was a time in my life when I tried to run away from God too, but God is omnipresent, He is present everywhere. Because this is so, I could not escape from His Spirit.
Just like Jonah, he tried to run away from God, but eventually he submitted to Him. Jonah was given a second chance to participate in God's Work.
God is the God of the second chance. He wants to use your life for His service, if you are willing to submit your life to Him.

No one goes after God unless God calls them. He does not call everyone. We are dead in our sins and unless God gives us new life we will never followHim.

Who's this God that stalks people? I run to stay in shape, and don't believe in a stalking God.

I ran from God for years... because I knew that if I accepted HIm, that my world wouldn't just be "all about me" anymore.
Doing just whatever I want was (and is) no longer an option.
Most people hate change, and will fight it to their last breath.

you are all like a child defending it's abuser... you all hear the warnings because you are obsessed with "beware of Satan" that is mother nature warning you christians for that is who you serve. that is why we don't want your god and you obviously couldn't tell spiritual inspiration from the devils demands if you wanted to.

Wow, Martin Luther declared that Islam is "Gods Retribution" for Christian Sins in this world ?
“As early as 1518, Dr. Martin Luther had identified the Islamic faith as the "retribution of God."
For the rest of his life Luther believed that the Muslims were God's punishment upon a sinful Christendom who had, among other sins (ingratitude, toleration of wicked sects, worship of the god Mammon, drunkenness, greed, and the split of Christendom which had provoked His wrath), tolerated the papal abomination. They would function as Germany's schoolmaster who must correct and teach the German people to repent of their sins and to fear God.”

I'm not running. I'm confidently walking away. I've read the bible, I know who/what god is. I refuse to blindly follow a murderer, a hypocrit, etc.
