Have you ever heard the phrase "Misery Loves Company!" ???
Is THAT why you Christians seem so anxious to convert the entire planet to "Christianity"???

Why do you feel that I as a christian I'm sad and want to make others around me feel that way.
Yes I consider myself a "holy Roller" But I don't think that I'm Better than the anyone else. I just forgiven that's all.
I believe that i was born into sin but that i was cleansed by the blood that JESUS shed when he died for me on the Cross. and when he arose on the third day and fulfilled his fathers prophecy.
It is our job to spread his word, not all who do are right in there methods, sometimes it is better to "wash someones feet instead of pouring water over there head".
The Good News or the Gospels which make up most of the new testament tell of JESUS life and his return for his flock.
AS a Christian I am so happy and content, I wish to share my joy with everyone around me, I don't force people to listen nor do I push my Faith on them, If they ask I tell.
GOD Bless and JESUS saves But it is up to you to listen and believe.

I like your questions, Inuyasha.
I am not interested in "converting" the entire planet, I am interested in sharing. I do believe if we were all meant to have total faith, it could have been ccreated that way. Rather we were given free will.
What someone decides to do is there "free will". If someone does decide to convert, the Power is within the Holy Spirit.
"Misery loves company" - most definately, but that doesn't make it right. If someone is down, or lonely, then they seek out the same. A better option would be to seek the opposite, and then be lifted up out of difficult dealings.
I think Christians are trying to help, in their own way (some more aggressively than others). I surely wouldn't want anyone to take the chance to find out "if they believe in Hell" when it's too late. I would like to avoid "souls" being tortured as punishment because I care. I just will not force the issue. But I do still Care!
Blessed Be, Inuyasha, and all who respond in this forum.
With love and affection, Marianne aka GoodWill2Man

Where did you get the idea any Christians are miserable. I don't know any Christians who are miserable. We are anything but that. Anyone who chooses to believe Jesus is God's Son are the most joyful people. We have been blessed with the gift of eternal life with Him.
I do try to be holy, and although I don't like dice gambling, I love rollerskating and rollerblading. So yes, I would consider myself a Holy-Roller.

No Anna, this isn't toddler abuse. it would be very unhappy in the adventure that your mothers and dads did no longer care sufficient which you may show you how to already know the fact. sooner or later, while this temporal existence is over and you proceed to exist interior the subsequent one, you will look returned at what they have completed and desire which you had listened. it is no longer (yet) seen toddler abuse to coach your babies interior the strategies of the Bible, anymore than this is "abuse" to instruct them to be rebellious and to gown and act like whores. the actual motives that they have got taught you those issues is by way of fact they're interior the word of God, and because they like you to be saved. Deuteronomy 22:5 Amplified Bible (AMP) 5 the lady shall no longer positioned on that which pertains to a guy, neither shall a guy positioned on a woman’s garment, for all that do so are an abomination to the Lord your God. a million Corinthians 11:15 King James version (KJV) 15 yet while a woman have long hair, this is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a overlaying. It additionally says that this is a disgrace for a guy to have long hair. (a million Cor 11:14) God (who's sovereign btw) needs there to be a recognizable distinction between adult women and men. it is been that way from the beginning up. God does not and has no longer replaced, yet human beings do. He needs females to look like females for this reason we could desire to continually positioned on clothing that enable human beings understand that we are females and we are meant to have long hair, mutually as adult men are meant to have short hair. in case you do no longer like it, or do no longer believe it, it concerns no longer. returned God is sovereign, He made the guidelines.

I'm not a Christian, but I do love to think of myself as a holy roller.

Some may call us that term, but it doesn't matter as I have found so much joy in my life that you can call me any name in the book and so what.
The reason I tell others about my faith is that I want them to share the peace and joy I have found and it is commanded of me by my Lord, Jesus Christ. Read the following scripture:
Mark Chapter 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

Yes that is exactly it....
Don't worry though your phrase will ring true to those who choose to not choose him now. I think the Tribulation and the inferno that is known as Hell is a bit miserable, and the Devil would love the company of the unsaved. I

GOD TAUGHT YOU BETTER NOT TO JUDGE OTHER CHRISTIANS AS HOLY-ROLLERS. WHY DOES IT MATTER? PEOPLE ARE SPREADING THE WORLD SO OTHERS WILL KNOW THE TRUTH. SOME PEOPLE WILL CHOOSE TO BELIEVE AND HAVE EVERLASTIING LIFE. OTHERS WILL CHOOSE HELL BY CONTINUING TO DO EVIL. GOD LOVES YOU GUYS, SO DO WE. WE WANT GOOD THINGS FOR YOU AS GOD DOES.

Everybody but you, you are not welcome as far as i'm concerned and you need not let it bother you anymore because you definately will not see the kingdom of heaven with that type of hate in your heart.
