Quoth the fornicatrix?
That's a handy excuse, too, and leaves no room for growth. If you believe in God, as you say you do, then you know he gave you free will. YOU choose what to do with the gifts He gave you. If you use your gifts to preach to people and alienate them, don't blame God - you CHOOSE to do that.
There's where you and I differ. The day I stop growing is the day I die.
Alienating people is not a gift. Teaching people is a gift. Alienating them is a flaw.

If you stop growing and living you no longer have the quality of life that everyone in this world deserves. Life is a growing process that no matter how old you are, you are still growing whether it be spiritually or not acting like a social twit.
What type of religous person are you to alienate people. That is not the way God instructed us to live. He wants you to accept people who they are. Yes you can witness to them, but don't be so judgemental if they don't follow your exact wisdom and religion, that is SO not right.
SOOO...basically your saying because we are members of a eastern church that you are better then us, and we don't have a clue when it comes to religion?
YOu know what we used to call born again Christians in my school(which was a Christian School)...bible thumpers, because they were out to save the world because they had just found God. Well most of us had found God from a very young age and didn't need to be thumped!

Zuchick... I think maybe you need to step back and rethink your approach.
First, when I logged in this afternoon I saw two of your posts side by side. First, this one. Second, "My Ignore List." Interesting to say the least.
If you are trying to lead God's people - but you exclude the "gentiles" or unbelievers, then you are swimming upstream and fighting a losing battle.
This causes those of us who cherish God to question your motives.
If you never ever listen to another thing I say...please listen to this. You cannot lead people to God when you do not live the way that God commands.
This "jam it down your throat approach" Is turning many, who are sitting on the fence away from God. You will be held responsible for this at judgement.
I try very hard to look into the hearts of others and understand that God loves every single one of us. None is above the other.
Stop force feeding God and join our family. Once you get to know us... You'll find ton's of opportunity to lovingly talk about God.
Right now you are placing your eternity in jepordy. I know you don't see it.
