^That's all well and good, but when people go around saying others are going to hell because they don't believe in the same thing they do, that's when I start seeing a problem.


So if you, my friend, are heading towards danger should me being your friend not warn you of that danger? Jesus wanted me, us, Christians, to warn you. You can chose, however, not to accept that warning, but as good Christians we are compelled to warn you. So, please don't be angry about this.

And I can question the basis of your compulsion and leading with Hell on a number of grounds:

* Show one case where you see in Acts, or examples of Christians preaching in the Bible, where hell avoidance is what was preached.  You can see Jesus teach on this, but as a basis of it being preached by Christians?  In short, I challenge you to show the Biblical way to evangelize, and show what it is, and show it is about avoiding hell and not making disciples, or preaching about the resurrection.

* You see a place where Jesus told the Disciples to not preach and wait for the Holy Spirit.

* Jesus said not to throw pearls to pigs or good food to dogs.

Ok, go through the Bible and show where you personally are supposed to go about warning people of Hell.  Yes, YOU personally, not that the teaching is in there, or it is part of it, but that is what you are to preach.  And heck, if you are supposed to personally.
