I want to apologize to all non believing people who have been encountered by christians in this manor. Through fear and promise of destruction. And when the conversation doesn't go well the christian ends it by saying you will be burning in hell. Thats not right. That's not ok. That is not love.
Christ came to this earth to die. He chose to die so that we might live. But before he died he not only taught us how to pray but he instructed us in the ways of perfect evangelism by simply loving others. Christ loved the unbeliever, the drunk, the prostitute, and the thief. He went out of His way to speak life into them and encourage them. He didn't slander them and tell them that they will be burning in hell. He never used fear as a way to bring the truth.
Christ is our ultimate example of how to live and love. We Christians ,must truly look at what Christ did when he was on this earth and follow. The sermon on the mount in Matthew chapters 5-7 is a great place to start. Lets start showing the world how to truly be a Christian by simply loving those around. It is not our job to convict someones heart. It is the holy spirits. We are called to live honorably. Lets not get offended when someone doesn't want to hear what we have to say. Our job is done. It goes in to the Lords hands at that point!
