Do you ever look at people passing you by and understand that most if not all of them will be burning in hel someday? [Spirituality & Religion]

Such few will be saved, very few people and it's almost sad. Many people are falling into hell all the time and you only have this one shot at making heaven. What will it be?

There will be many surprised at the end of time. Many who believe that they will be saved will be thrown into the lake of burning fire for being arrogant and judgmental.
@SweetMae And many who served God without holiness will fall into the lake of fire.

@SweetMae theres more sides than arrogance and judgment

@lightshinesthroughdarkness If sweet Mae misses heaven then I will gladly accompany her to hell, but I think God is love and wants us to be loving

@SW-User Thank you, Rae I believe that God is love too. And He is far more accepting than any person.

@MartinTheFirst There are many sides. We each have to work out our own salvation with fear and trembling. Threatening people with hell is not a very effective way to teach people about God.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@SweetMae Threatening? More like informing.
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@MartinTheFirst Yes, that was a poor choice of words on my part.
@SweetMae That's true. This is more of a sad realisation than anything.

@SweetMae Since more than 50% of the Bible is about what happens if you don't follow God, i think it'd be kind of bad if we didnt talk about that part at all. Kind of like trying to brag people with candy while holding the salt behind your back.
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@MartinTheFirst I just think there are more effective ways of informing people.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@SweetMae such as?
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@MartinTheFirst Showing people the love of God first. Showing them how much you care and how much God cares for them. We need to serve out of love not fear.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@SweetMae So when do we tell them about the lake of fire?
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@MartinTheFirst You tell them fairly early just not the first thing. Scares people away and makes them feel like God is cruel and unloving.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@SweetMae Well we're not here to win people over, that's up to the power of God. We're just here to be the messengers. Remember how Noah told people about the flood? Likewise we got to tell people about the judgmentday. Not to say that they will end up there for sure, but that the day is real and will happen.
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@MartinTheFirst I agree. Judgment day will arrive some day.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@SweetMae Indeed, so you know about it, then other people has too. It's our duty.

@MartinTheFirst But people seem to hate getting that kind of news and then they hate me. You've had to rescue me a few times on here.
MartinTheFirst · 26-30, M
@MarkPaul They do. Jesus said that people will hate us because of following him. A person doesn't hate someone that only brings pleasant news. We bring the news of judgment as well, not in our own name, but God's. Be careful to never tell anyone where they will go for no one but God knows.
MarkPaul · 26-30, M
@MartinTheFirst That's true... a good reminder. But, I still need your help some.
