throw a big party for everyone in town, give out pizzas and sodas and prizes and the only catch was you would hear about the salvation plan, I guess it would really bother you atheists if the church left the four walls wouldnt it? Well too bad, we are going to, and if you dont want revival get out of my way!!

People who don't like it shouldn't go to the park that day.

there grow to be yet another NKF incident earlier this, and a super type of human beings have already lost their have confidence in this fund elevating employer. over the years, human beings have finally regained their have confidence, yet now, this had to take place. nicely, i've got self assurance the pinnacle of Ren Ci wellbeing facility committed the crime as a results of a 2d a folly. He needed to assist his acquaintances, yet he used the money to achieve this - and it did no longer belong to him. He don't have accomplished that. perhaps he has forgotten that the money does no longer belong to him (no rely what, he has been there for an prolonged time, he could have been brainwashed?), for this reason he did a super type of those. I have not got any concept what we can do to ward off such situations in charitable companies in Singapore, even the guy we have confidence the main have accomplished that, what approximately others?

O.K. I'm trying to figure out your motives here. I'm assuming your under the impression that you are spreading the word. The only thing I'm really getting here is that you want some atheist to have a problem with what you are doing, so you can tell people the big bad world doesn't want you to have your party in the park. Come on man, have fun, have your party, spread the word. Just don't make it about you.

If you want to rent out your neighbourhood park and have a tent revival, go for it. But, from the way you word your question, you are being quite childish, no scratch that boorish about it.
You really could have just stopped after " .....the only catch was you would hear about the salvation plan", but you had to continue on to the atheist baiting part of your show, didn't you?

During the summer months, the church I attended in another state, we rented a certain area for the summer....like a picnic / BBQ with roof thing...It was church in the park...we had skits, games, families getting together...
people would come by and join in...it was a very big park area...it was wonderful and fun...we never had any problems from any one.....
it would be nice if more churches could do that during the summer

It wouldn't bother me. I don't have a problem with it. I wouldn't attend only because I've heard the salvation plan. Though I have to say the last line here about get out of your way is negative and the exact reason I wouldn't go.

I honestly don't think atheists will care. the only ones who would be upset are the fanatics. And if it is free pizza you may find many atheists show up for free food and leave early.
Lets put it this way, would you be upset if the local Mosque did the same thing, and the only catch was that they would explain to people the teachings of Islam?

As your fellow Christian, I'd like to ask you to stop and think about what you just posted.
I'd encourage you to take a look at I Cor 10:23-33. Everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial. Particularly, take a look at verses 32 & 33: "Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God - even as I try to please everybody in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved."
I would ask you to ask yourself, by posting this, could you be causing anyone to stumble? Could you be helping to harden the heart of an unbeliever because of your taunts? Do you think Jesus would approve of your proclamation that you're going to take over the park and if they don't like it, too bad?
Just a thought. I am just as big of a sinner as those you are trying to reach. In response to God's grace, I am humble. Where God can use me, I pray that He will. But in the meantime, I'm not about to pretend that I'm better than any of the other people He loves and wants me to reach, and I'm certainly not going to treat them with disrespect.
Blessings on your park event next weekend.

your attitude is the reason organized religions causes so much problems for this and all countries of the world. You dont have all the answers or you would be comfortable with yourself and not have to push your lame ideas on anyone. Your attack on the atheists here wont get you any points with any sane god nor is it very christain like. I think people like you should read and learn the teachings of the Bible and try to understand the vague meanings without thinking you are superior or know something someone else dont know. I would nto attend your salvation event because of your lame attitude and real christains and athetists alike would not either.

It wouldn't bother me in the least. In fact, the last time I had my kids to Cook's Forest State Park for a day of picnicking and swimming, there was a church group right beside us, and they were performing baptisms in the river. It was interesting hearing the stories these people had to tell and watching everyone get baptized.

No, it wouldn't bother me. The park is public property, and all sorts of groups use it.
If the church needs/wants to use the old "bread and circuses" game to win converts, more power to them. I'm sure that a lot of people would enjoy the free pizza.
