everything is represented by good and bad examples.
i definitely think that evangelizing by telling someone they are going to hell is a definite NO NO. that is the quickest way NOT to get your point across.
i also think that forcing your 'religion' on someone is the wrong way to evangelize.
evangelism is bascially just telling someone about your faith.


honestly, i detest the word 'religious'. it is NOT 100% equal to christianity. i, myself, am not religious. my church is not religious. when i think of religion, i think of a set of rules that you must follow or you will go to hell. a lot of christians think that way. and a lot of people think that christians are that way. it is the biggest misconception. to be a christian means to be free in Christ. of course, they are guidelines that you should live by. but it does not ultimately separate you from Christ. it is so much more than that.
it is too bad that christianity had to be separated by denominations, but the beliefs in christianity are so vastly different. honestly, i think that denominations do more harm than good.


and obviously, i know that christianity is not the only belief out there. i am just speaking what i know.




and thanks kddani for respecting the other thread
