Guest pal7746 Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Remember 9/11? Let's say that I knew beforehand that some airplanes were going to crash into the buildings. What kind of person would that make me if I didn't try to warn people? In the same way, What kind of Christian does that make me if I know about hell but don't try to warn people? It seems as though I don't hear enough talk about hell and this is why I posted this message to help motivate more Christians to warn more people about hell.

Not everybody will accept the "love" message. Sometimes fear is the only message that will get an unbeliever motivated to change their lives.

But they are also given by the Holy Spirit timeing as to when and who they are to warn. We are to be led by the Holy Spirit as to who we witness to also. Because he is the one who draws them to the father in the first place. We are not the Holy Spirit to other people. If we are told by the Holy Spirit to warn or witness about hell - which our witness should be of Jesus Christ and him crucified but if he told us to do it and we do not warn them then their blood is on our hands and their blood will be required of of-in other words-we are responsible. But if the Holy Spirit prompts us to be a witness and we do and then they decide to do what they want to do regardless-the at least we were obedient and did what we were told but are not responsible for there blood-we are clean. I had a kindergarden teacher; preach to my daughter that there was blood on her hand if she didn't witness. I had to get the bible out and show her what the Lord said, and I had to remind her that the Holy Spirit would lead her to be a witness. And he did! But I thought it was uncalled for for a teacher to tell her what she did. My little 5 year old coming home crying that she had blood on her hands-fear is not the way to do it. I believe that fear could lead to a false conversion. But the Holy Spirit can do as he chooses-we just must be his mouthpeice to carry out what he wants us to say. candi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, Hell is real-but that is not the only course that the Holy spirit uses-Jesus Christ is usually exalted. candi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
