So you think being overly legalistic is good?
Quote from: DamienTelling someone that the only way to be saved is through Jesus isn't 'forcing it down their throat', it's telling them that they need forgiveness for their sins. Opening up a church and letting them in is great, but that doesn't grant them salvation.
No, they'd be taking the homeless in because they act like Jesus wants them to. Forcing something down their throats in return is the opposite.
Wow... this is getting as off-topic as.........
Except longer, and with more topics. This is, hands down, the most interesting thread I've ever seen.
