Lol....you just keep putting the blame on people who want nothing to do with your religion. I'm sure it makes you feel better about yourselves and I could care less what your opinion of my heart is.

Now if only they preached the Gospel that Jesus, who is God himself, stepped out of Heaven to die on a cross to pay for the sins of those that believe!

The Amish do an outstanding job of living their beliefs.....and doing it without believing everyone and their brother has to be Amish to avoid hell.

If we invite and you decline...who else is to blame? If I didn't want to accept your teachings, would it be your fault? I don't really see the point of your comments.

Shouldn't that be your job? I mean if you feel so strongly about the trinity, start your own world wide preaching work and see if it does better.

"Invite"? What a pleasant way to say, "Accept what we say is absolute truth or you are doomed."

Something that would never happen since I don't knock on doors and ask people to "accept" my teachings.

Yet you post on this board? You don't have to respond to my post. Yet you do. You want me to accept your teaching to not do what Jesus commanded are you not?

Also, I will say this again. These are not my teachings. I didn't write the Bible.
