Remember "god loves you deeply and truly and if you don't love him back then he will throw you in a bit of fire for all eternity to suffer in agonizing pain" ...
But he loves you so please don't force him to do that ...

Christians don't hate anyone. When we talk about Heaven or hell, we are telling you what the bible says. God has commanded us to preach to all the world about the gospel. We are just very passionate about God's blessings and want to help people understand. Perhaps sometimes Christians may come on too strong to get their viewpoints across, but it's truly from the heart.
Lemon cream: If you believe that Jesus preached of love and acceptance, you are absolutely right. But you can't "pick & choose" which Bible verses you use and which you will ignore. Jesus also said "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me." (John 14:6)
THAT is what we are trying to teach to others, in life and on this forum. God bless!

Its no threat sir. Its a WARNING!!!!
No one is threatening you. You are taking it as a threat because you dont want to believe it.
You know the basic facts. Your CHOICE not to believe it is YOUR CHOICE.
If we do not warn you of the consequences of not following Christ, then we will be judged as well, even though we are Christians.
All I can say is this. You have been warned. No one desires to threaten you, but we desire that youo see the light and convert.
As for serving a god the tortures his creation? Here is the explanation..
God created us all. Every man, woman and child. He desires that we worship Him. When we die, our bodies (the flesh and bone and blood) dies, but your spirits live on.
If we have not served the Lord as requested, He will justly judge us. He has given us free will, so it is up to us to decide what we see as right, and this includes the choice to serve Him or not.
If we choose not to serve Him then we have chosen our future. Its simple. Heaven or hell. Where do you want to spend eternity?
This is no threat. Its a promise. A promise from God, who is giving all mankind, every woman, man and child the opprotunity to convert. He is not threatening us, He is pleading with us, He is asking us, He is warning us. And you should now see that threats and warnings are not the same things.
God loves each soul. But He hates the sin we comitt. The simple truth is, if we die, (physically) with unconfessed sin in our lives, then we will have a huge problem when we stand before God on the great day of judgment.
You have been warned. I pray you will see the light.
God Bless you

I'm sorry to hear some Christians are threatening you. Many different ideas are posted here. You're allowed to post yours.
As for what kind of God do I worship that would torture those who do not worship Him? God has set up the lake of fire for those who do not believe in His Son, Jesus. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Perhaps if you studied the Bible, you would be converted. But if you don't want to, that is your choice. We were all given free will.
I will pray for those who are unkind to you, and pray for God to reveal Himself to you in the most awesome way.

If God was into "torturing" us for our sin= all of us would be tortured for our sin= because there is not one person immune from sinning- including myself. The only reason I will not burn in hell is because I believe that Jesus died for my sins, and that without Him I would be forever separated from Him. You can choose to believe or not. I cannot speak for other Christians, but I can tell you, I am so thankful that God made a way for me, because I deserve eternal hell.

The only God there is and the one that will also allow you to live forever in paradise if you will do what he asks. God gives you a choice its your decision if you burn forever and it doesn't matter if you don't like the idea burning forever there is no other way if you do not accept jesus as your lord and savior and live by his ways.

I dont understand why you christians tell others if you dont accept Jesus that your going to hell. Well I say about 99.9999% of you Christians do things that your God teaches you not to do. So you Christians cant even be true to your own God. Not one time did i meet a true faithful Christian. They all are full of hate for those who disagree with them and I was thinking your God teaches you love one another but yet they hate those who are not one of them.

Wow, I'm really sorry you get such threats. People are nuts lol.
So you don't believe in God? Big deal! It doesn't automatically make you a bad person. I'm not going to ask you to convert to Judaism or anything as its not my business. I respect you for not being in God. I'm sorry others are butts about it though.
Nyah to them! You're alright in my book.

I sort of agree with you. Teaching people that they will go to hell if they don't accept Jesus as their savior is a backwards way to operate. Jesus preached love and acceptance and would probably not approve of the methods of hate.
