I think that the " I know the truth and you don't " stance is too much, as it is perpetuated all of the time in many over the top ways. I have heard Christians say that " hell is full of GOOD people that never accepted God as their savior " Is that fact or an opinion ? I just can't get with the non-acceptance of other faiths or non-faiths that is portrayed so loudly, can't it just be between you and your ' God " ?
Hey buddy,
I understand were you are coming from. My perspective is this. I will tell you my beliefs because the BIBLE and Jesus said to. Whether you choose to accept them is your doing, not mine. My thoughts about you will not change one way or another. You can still be my friend. The Bible clearly states how to get to heaven and because you said that you don't want to be pressured, I, like others should have, will back off and give you your space. A better example of this is about the gay community in America and the Christian stand on it. My standpoint is that we should help, befriend them, aid them, and help them in anyway we can like everyone else. We just shouldn't be forced to accept what they do right. If I am stepping on toes I really am sorry but just thought that you in particular should know were many Christians, like myself stand.
