Telling a Christian "No, I'm not interested" ?

Question

How will you explain this to God at the Judgment ?

Answer 1

Well, they can try to explain, but we all know what the response from Him will be and it won't be pretty or nice.

Answer 2

God doesn't want everybody. He doesn't draw everyone. They aren't interested means that they don't have the Father drawing them:
44 "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day. 45 It is written in the Prophets: 'They will all be taught by God.' "
( John 6 )

And here, Paul nails it here:
2 What if God, choosing to show his wrath and make his power known, bore with great patience the objects of his wrath—prepared for destruction? ( Romans 9 )

My point is: BE DISCERNING! God does not want everybody. So if a person tells you that he is not interested, he is not interested. Save it for those who are interested. The questions are different from those drawn to Him!

Answer 3

hi there, u telling a christian "no, i'm not interested" isn't a religeous crime. even if it was u don't have to explain why you're not interested to anyone. also, GOD is a very forgiving being & he will only judge u if u r wrong & know it while doing it. so don't worry about judgement day, even if u have sinned as long as u r sorry for it & try really hard not to do it again then GOD will understand you. that's my answer for u! bb,

Answer 4

Anyone 'not interested', not a Believer may be in the first book but if not in the book of life - will have CHOSEN a different destination. The True Christian will be rewarded for his/her intention - his/her name will be in both.

Answer 5

God created all of us with the power to CHOOSE what we do. God understands if someone tells a Christian "No, I'm not interested." We have the God-given ability to say yes or no.

Answer 6

I'm a Christian. People don't have to go around telling me that they're not interested, because I'm not shoving my religion in their face to begin with. Threats of divine retribution aren't exactly going to bring people to Christianity, either. If somebody doesn't believe, that's their own personal choice.

Answer 7

I have no idea what you mean by that...do you mean like when an atheist arives at the gates of heaven and are asked why they should be let in? if so...then I would laugh and think "well it's too bad they had to choose the obvious lie"

Answer 8

How will you explain if it turns out he wanted you to wait for him instead of following just one of the many conflicting religions?

If there is a god who made us all then he made us all begin without theism. Shouldn't we stay that way until 'he' changes us. I don't reject gods word I reject you assuming you speak for him.

I'll say I waited for you because only god could prove god. I have a boundless interest in any variety of subjects. I would be greatly interested in speaking to an all powerful being especially if he created everything. I'm just not interested in hearing you.

Answer 9

As you can see from the answers you got above mine. I would refer you back to a little piece of wisdom.
"Cast not your pearls to pigs"
Not saying ya did anything wrong by asking. But the folks who are going to have to explain, pretty much already have. Sad but true,

Answer 10

As a Christian, you've done your duty in telling someone else about Jesus' miracle. If that person refuses to accept it, you must be patient and refrain from badgering them.
The song says it all: "They will know we are Christians by our love". All else is out of your hands. You cannot save even one other person who doesn't wish to be saved.

Answer 11

It not so much as your not intrested it's more like it too much of a heavy burden for them to believe. They already believe that theres a heel it's just to hard on them right now for them to believe that such a GOOD place can exist.
