Not all Christians
"FEEL COMPELLED TO CONVERT OTHERS?"
We do hoewever have an obligation to share and explain the Gospel however some people forget we should wait until we're ASKED.
My belief and experience is that evangelists and fundamentalists are made to feel guilty if they're not enlarging their congregation. They associate spiritual growth with numbers in attendance on Sunday not internal individual development.
People should bear in mind that even Paul an active euangelist pointed out in Corinthinians that people all have different spiritual gifts .. we cant all be evangelists or preachers or teachers.
We shouldnt be made to feel guilty by evangelicals and others of that ilk!
There are many forms of witnessing!

Most likely because part of being a Christian is to minister to others. Ideally the more people who at least has the chance to choose Christ the sooner He is coming back. Almost every country in the world has ministries going on now but not quite. At any rate, nothing is worse than having a Christian being too pushy and it is a turn off. Christians are even pushy on other Christians. Believe me I know!

although i can't talk for anyone in my opinion i does no longer strategies all that plenty i'm a Jehovah's Witness and we are taught to examine approximately different ideals. And if we see different human beings preaching what they suspect is suited it makes us happy simply by fact they are attempting to maintain on with the bible whether we disagree with a number of what they do a minimum of they are following Jesus' be conscious and preaching in all countries.

I don't mind genuinely religious people trying to convert others to what they honestly think is the truth, but I do very much detest people who know religion is fictional nonsense but try to deceive people into believing it for their own selfish purposes - Generally power, wealth and prestige.

It's not my responsibility to save anyone. Only Jesus Christ can save. But it is my responsibility to give an answer when I am asked the reason for my faith, and I've always been faithful to do so. The people who feel theatened by our testimonies can only feel so because they know deep in their hearts that we have something that they don't. Never forget this: The only one tooo wicked to be saved----------- is the one tooooo wicked to repent. Don't let that be your downfall!

We want to share the love, mercy and compassion of Jesus with you. We want to share salvation, a way to be with your Creator in Heaven for eternity. We also want to warn you out of the love for Christ, of eternal damnation that do not accept the free gift of salvation from Jesus who died so that you may live eternally in perfect joy and peace! We do feel compelled to help you who live in darkness here and will forever without the love of Christ. God bless you

Their bible says to witness to others. Im ok with it if I tell them Im not interested in it/changing my religion. If they keep on and wont quit I tell them off (that I respect their right to beleive as they do and they should have the same respect for me)and leave or shut door it does no good to argue with those kind of people.

They think large numbers validate their belief.
Notice how often the number of Christians is cited?
There are millions of children that believe in Santa Claus.
Does that mean he's real?
