But you know Timothy's proven worth, how as a son with a father he has served with me in the gospel.
Ok, you've spread the word; you're going to heaven. You can stop now.

But do you believe you're effective in your preaching? Do you believe that pasting the entire New Testament into one post is an effective way of getting people to read it?

I wonder if doing something real, like doing some charitable work and politely, respectfully, tell the recipients of your labor that Jesus' love for you and you for him led you to help, would be more effective. If you lived a great life and politely credited Jesus, probably those you help won't jump to Christianity right away, but if you kept it up, helping regularly, and with others who were doing the same, some would, eventually, say, "Wow. There may be something to that Jesus. I'll listen."

I am pretty certain that just dumping a bunch of scripture quotes in a long post on the Internet isn't going to have the desired effect - IF the desired effect is getting people to learn about Christ and his passion and the salvation he brings.

That makes me wonder if the real reason for your post isn't conversion or spreading the word at all; it seems to be more that you want to say you spread the word and to pat yourself on the back and tell the Lord, "Lord, I spread the word; I posted all your apostles writings on the Internet. I'm going to heaven for sure now, right, Lord?"
 
Jesus spoke almost about Hell, not about Heaven
Jesus did speak about Heaven.

Only crazy sadistic Ukrainian morons put Mother of Jesus together with a killing machine
 
I was raised in one of the Christian religions. My own religious belief is shallow indeed. I do believe in God. I don’t believe that God believes in religion. I certainly don’t believe in eternal damnation for mistakes made during maybe in 100 years of life. It’s far too irrational a thought to ascribe to God.

Did you create Universe?
Nope
So you shall fulfill the Commandments of God
Plane and simple

I did not create the universe. No.

And I’m content in my belief that God did.

But that doesn’t mean that God has issued me any commandment to believe in one religion over some other religion. You are free to believe whatever you wish. Me to. Cool deal!
 
I already said it, if 99% go to hell, someone messed up.
Personally, I think 99% is much too high. Out of curiosity, what would you say would be an acceptable percentage of those choosing God and those not choosing God?
 

The sad truth is almost 99 % humans go to Hell​


Time to party with the rest of us!

Anyone who sits around thinking that he knows just what's going to happen to himself and the rest of us after they die is already in contempt of the omnipotence creation. He ceases to be truly humble with and face the fact that he does NOT. He does not have enough faith in creation itself to admit that he does not know. He fails to recognize and surrender his own infintesimal place in the universe.
 
I doubt it's 99%, but even if it is, those who end up in heaven will not know what happened to those who did not make it.

It isn’t acceptable that a god would create imperfect beings and then punish them eternally for being imperfect. So, as far as eternity goes, 0%.

Are you saying that any individual who does not wish to love and serve God should be forced into heaven to love and serve Him anyway? For an eternity?
 
If strict adherence to the Law of the Lord is the test, then we all fail.
The Lamb of God provides a way. There is hope.
