A friendly neighbour asks you a question- do you have a faith, they say Jesus loves you and you must come into faith
When you say no, they tell you that you’re with devil and after death you’ll burn in hell indefinitely. What would you do?

I would ask them " if you were god, would you then want all of humanity to worship you and grovel at your feet and would you send anyone who doesn't worship you to a place where they will suffer for eternity? is that something that YOU would do? is that what YOU secretely want, to have everyone submit to you and hurt them if they don't? why do you imagine god to be so evil if you wouldn't do it? are you saying you are better than god?

Will each apostle judge one tribe or will all of them judge all of the tribes as a collective?
Matthew 19:28-30 (TLB) = 28 And Jesus replied, “When I, the Messiah, shall sit upon my glorious throne in the Kingdom,* you my disciples shall certainly sit on twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29 And anyone who gives up his home, brothers, sisters, father, mother, wife, children, or property, to follow me, shall receive a hundred times as much in return, and shall have eternal life. 30 But many who are first now will be last then; and some who are last now will be first then.”
Notice, he didn't say anything about the Gentiles.
All of them??
The fairy tale is unclear. There were twelve apostles and they will judge the twelve tribes of Israel. Each tribe has its own gate into the golden cube called New Jerusalem. Will each apostle judge one tribe or will all of them judge all of the tribes as a collective?

Even if Jesus the christ came down and gave me fool proof evidence he is "Lord and Savior" I would refuse his offer for redemption and refuse to follow "him" or any other so-called "god" who craves my unconditional worship and the bizarre idea of being "god fearing" Frak Jesus, frak god.

@mysteryespresso Good and Evil are not people. They are concepts.
@hippyjoe1955 you hate people because of made up concepts !

@mysteryespresso Why do you assume that I hate people? I may disagree with people but that doesn't mean I hate them. It means I disagree with them. If I truly believe that there is only one God and that that God has given you a path to salvation then it is my obligation to tell you about that path to salvation. I don't want to see you go to hell. I want you to join me in Heaven! Me telling a child to not touch a hot stove is not hate. It is an act of love. You set up a false idol in your world view that says that 'tolerance' is the most important thing except you yourself are intolerant of those who say that 'tolerance' is not all that important.
