- One thing I''''ve learned about some Christians is that its not actually about God, Jesus or even the love for our brothers. Its about themselves and being right all the time. You seem to sound almost happy the some souls will burn forever.

That is totally false Alpine. If I were "happy" about seeing people suffer for eternity in hell then I wouldn''t be on here telling them that there''s an escape from hell and His name is Jesus Christ. If I didn''t care about these people, then I wouldn''t be sharing the Gospel with them.
You cannot truly love one another without speaking the Truth, even if it hurts.
One things for sure, if they do choose to reject Christ they can''t say they never had the chance to hear His plan of salvation. - Reply to this comment
- And once again ranger1948, love is not forced. It is a choice, it is a committment.
When I made a commitment to Christ, He came to live within me via the Holy Spirit, just as the Scriptures indicate He does. It truly is a supernatural experience.
Also, why don''t you ever think about what He, the Lord Jesus Christ did for you on the cross, and all the suffering He endured for you??
Love is not forced. God wants you to love Him, and He''s laid out his perfect plan of salvation for you, no religion required. He doesn''t care what type of "Religious" background you come from or how you were raised or what ethnic background you are. He will give you eternal life, right here, right now, if you simply bow down and ask Him to come into your heart and forgive you of your sins, and accept Him as Lord and Savior of your life.
It is a supernatural experience. And it sets you free.
Being a Christian is about what God did for us on the cross 2,000 years ago at Calvary. He loves us, and His love and His free gift of eternal life is available to all who will accept it.
But like I said, love is not forced. - Reply to this comment

If others are as devout to their religion as you are to yours, how do you expect them to change from what they believe to accept your beliefs ? Is your religion more righteous than theirs ? - Reply to this comment

You say God is a loving god, but if one does not accept him they are condemmed to etrnal damnation, doesn''''t sound very loving to me.

Exactly! If there was a god and if he was a loving god he would live in every one. In every one''s souls. And he would love the man who refused to believe in him no less then the one that worships him. All men and women, no matter how evil, would all be saved because that is what a loving Father does! A loving Father does not practice "tough love" he loves all of his children and saves them all, even if they spit on him and reject him and even if they deny his existence. Otherwise he is NO god! - Reply to this comment
- Christian735 "With this being said He creates us with free will. And because of your free will, you have chosen to reject Him, because again, it boils down to authority. You don''''t want any higher authority in your life other than your own. You don''''t want to accept that there is a higher power, the Lord Jesus Christ, who is much more powerful and smarter than any human being could ever possibly be. You don''''t want to face the reality that there is a such thing as sin, and that there is an eternal punishment for sin if people reject the free gift of salvation through the Lord Jesus Christ."
SgtRDS-E4 made his choice just like you said. So why can''t you just let him be. One thing I''ve learned about some Christians is that its not actually about God, Jesus or even the love for our brothers. Its about themselves and being right all the time.

What possible good reason could you have for not accepting His free gift of eternal life for the forgiveness of your sins? Is there something preventing you from wanting to be perfect for eternity and living in eternal happiness?
God has given you a perfect plan of escape from your sins and is offering you eternal life if you will accept it. What is preventing you from doing so other than simply not believing in Him?

Actually the Bible clearly states that when we reign on this earth with Christ for 1,000 years (after He comes back to defeat the enemies of Israel (the Muslim nations) in the final battle of Armageddon, that we will be able to lay right down with the wild animals, and that there will be no more killing, and no more military forces.
The Bible also clearly states that there will be animals in Heaven. So really, I think you need to pick up the Holy Scriptures again and read them. God determines what animals will be in Heaven.
But God creates human beings with dominion over the animals. We are created in the likeness of God. THat''s why we have free will. God wants us to love Him in return. He doesn''t want to force it.
Because once again, LOVE IS NOT forced. - Reply to this comment
