Christianity and arguements

[Guest guest]

We are " supposed " to have freedom of speech. Christians do not feel

that the Bible and their Christianity is off topic " at anytime anywhere "

because it is a complete way of life and affects everything we do, say,

and hear. No one wants to argue-----we just know we are right and want

to defend morality and help others be saved when possible because those

that are not Christians have " no clue " as what is going to happen to

them in the afterlife. To us, it is like saving a child from falling

into a swimming pool and drowning---only much more serious than that,

therefore it is difficult to convince us that we should be silent about

what we know when it is the most important thing of all for survival in

eternity. Most people who go to hell, have no clue " why " they are

there when they arrive, and the Bible tells us that two thirds of all

people on the earth that have ever lived and died are going there.

That is so tradgic it is unimaginable by any comparison. So knowing

what we know, we are willing to risk even our lives to save one person

from going to such a terrible place----but argue----no. The Bible also

says " no man " comes to the Father except the Father draw them.

Arguementation cannot draw someone to salvation but telling people about

it and bringing it to their attention will at least be an aid for their

consideration and contemplation and then we pray for them silently so

that God will open the eyes of their understanding and draw their

hearts. Religion is another topic, and it does cause arguements----there

is a big difference between being knowledgable of the Bible and walking

the walk, and just being a religious blabber mouth. There are many

religions each with their own ideas (and most of them in error) but

there is only one Bible and that is where we are to seach the scriptures

and study ourselves approved. It says we should win people over by

example, not by arguement. Steph

The only people that have bothered to TEACH me, not preach to me, is the

rastafarians. Probably because of where I lived.They are the most loving

people I have ever come across. They never told me I was going to hell and

they never made me feel like I was evil because I have different beleifs.

The only bible I have ever read was the rastafarian bible and so I really am

not one to argue about the bible, since I know nothing. I am just sick of

people telling other people they are wrong because they are " right " . What

makes you right? Nobody really knows what is right and what is wrong. Just

like they say, just because you go to church on Sunday doesnt make you

christian.
