did you ever think that someone might actually love enough to not want to see any lost?, but Christians are also told to let it go after a point. It seems clear from some posts that some do not care to have faith in anything but what? Maybe the old big bang deal...?

So , let me ask you a question. If there was a Christian thread to discuss Christian ideas and thought, could you leave it alone?

>>And could it be that the real basis of your complaint is that Christians can never hold their own in these exchanges?<<

Christians can only testify. That is why it's called faith and not science.

Also, if this thread here is any indication, each believer's image of Christ is different.

It's interesting how the Messianic Jews see the Kingdom of Yeshua as being Jewish-based, and there are black Christians who believe Jesus was African, and white Christians who call themselves "identity Christians" and think Christ was an "Aryan;" the permutations go on and on.

I wonder why it is so difficult for so many of us to accept another person's version of "God." As long as the proselytizers in question aren't doing it at gunpoint what is the harm?

I hope at the very least that we're all praying for the well-being of others, being fairly certain that it cannot hurt but could help.

A person has to believe in something. Faith can move mountains.

FWIW
