you can pray for me, you can share your testimony and your beliefs, but how many really think that they can control my fate and change it? That seems rather like making yourself into a god, having that much power, I really am curious about if you can save me.

everyone has great answers, I just needed clarity for all the thumbs down everyone received on a prior question for telling someone they did not have the power to save anyone. Thank you for your sincere answers, and you are right, only God can save if you believe.

WE have no power to save people from hell, but God has.
These God-whom I believe was became a human just to sacrifice Him self to save human with His blood. So now those who believe in Him and accept Him as the God, will receipt this gift.

It all depends on how a Christian shares his or her testimony with you,and where.Sometimes it can be in a church setting,sometimes not.Billy Graham,for instance,always held his crusades not in churches,but in stadiums & arenas,no matter what country he went to. And,there were others that once travelled with him & shared their testimonies.

It's not just us as Christians "operating alone," believing that we alone can save others from going to hell,but sharing the fact that Jesus Christ alone has already done it by his death on the cross & resurrection-saved all of humanity from going to hell,which wasn't created for humans to begin with.

However,nobody but you can control your own fate & change it.Nobody can make you get saved.All they can do is share their testimonies,and,if possible,pray with you to receive Jesus Christ as your personal lord & saviour.

In my opinion,get saved as quickly as possible!Why?In this day & age,there are too many ways TO DIE FAST !That also includes dying in your sleep!That also happens to a lot of people.No one has the guarantee that they'll wake up in the morning.None of us knows when our last day in this world is.
That's how unpredictable life can be!

You are correct! I can't, neither can anybody else, save you. You are compelled to make a leap of faith for yourself because if you go to Hell it will be because YOU rejected Christ Jesus. God ultimately will have to grace your depraved nature with His Holiness, which is done by God working with your heart by using His people as His tool who witness to you of the truth of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and God's love towards you. Your response will determine your outcome.

Why assume that hell exists? It's an ancient scam for conversion purposes, now truly believed by a billion followers. So of course the whole hell thing will be a moral roller coaster. They believe that they can save you from eternal torture in a non-existent place in a non-existent afterlife from non-existent sins.

No one else can save you from hell. Heaven or hell is a choice you have to make. God made a way for you to go to heaven. It's up to you to choose. We can only plant the seed.

Hell doesn't exist. Only you can save yourself. Your free will controls your fate and you have the power to change it.

Only those who misunderstand the Bible, God Himself doesn't save us from Hell if we don't ask first. Praying for someone doesn't mean asking God to make them be something (Christian) they do not want to be.

People themselves? No. People guided by God, doing Gods will? Yes. People can do the introducing etc. God does the rest.

You are absolutely correct. We can not save you. Only you can save yourself through a personal relationship with God.

yes, some people believe they can and put themselves in God's place. That's obviously sin. But the truth is that only Jesus can save because He is God.
