I, for one, am one of those He came for? But I notice some people seem to do fine in life without believing in God. Many are doing better than me.
Of course, I am doing much better since I came to the realization that there is a God who came to seek and save the lost and that I was a candidate for His grace.
What about those who have their act together and don't need Christ?

I think you should be sure he came for you.
If you don't understand what Jesus was saying, maybe you don't know him. Maybe you just like the whole social thing and feeling like your on a nice team.
What do you think?
Am I hitting a nerve or are you confident in your salvation?
Will you or will you not be with God when You shed your skin?
Or maybe your just contemplating as David did.
Which is it?
Only those who know they need a doctor, go to one.
Some people have terminal cancer yet don't know it.
Some people have a heart condition but because they are unaware of it they go to work every day. But one day...
Be sure in who you believe.

All have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Everyone is in need of salvation through Jesus without exception.
Many are deceived thinking that physical wealth shows a person is fine, but a time will come when they will not be able to depend on that wealth and must answer to God. The answer will either be their own righteousness which is as filthy rags or the righteousness of Jesus that saves.
A person must decide now rather they receive Jesus or not, they cannot wait until after death to decide.

Despite the fact I have an Arab Muslim on my avatar, I am not one myself. I don't need to explain. Nor should you.
Religion is a marketing device, a spiritual advertising campaign, and Jesus for Christians is the gimmick/slogan/jingle.

Erm, if you dont need God then you probably wont have God when u wake up after death.
However, am not too sure youre gonna like what youre gonna get in the absence of God.
That is assuming you really do wake up.
Notice: The 'you' in this sentence, does not refer to the questioner.

well i know that there will be ppl saying that everyone needs God, no matter who they are. but that's just an opinion.
i think that everyone is or has been "soul sick", but some people can work it out themselves, without God.

Doing well in this world is no guarantee that you'll do well in the next. We are ALL 'soul sick'. Some of us simply cope better than others.

First of all religion can screw you with a guilt trip, can interfere with your sex life, can cripple people sometimes.

Everyone that has been born is soul sick. We just don't realize it until we find Jesus. We all need Jesus in our life.

If you expect to die some day, you need God.
