trying to convert atheist to christianity

kakashe
im trying to convert my friends to christianity, i say friends because there are 2 of them and they both have the same excuse, mabie i deserve hell, or i like pain, or youll just get use to the fire after a while. i really just dont what to do any more, like what should i say i try to explain to them hell is like being trapped in a oven that is set to a trillion degrees forever but they just say bring it on i like the pain. i really need some kind of advice to change their minds

I'd be careful with that, a lot of people will get offended with that being pushed on them!

It's not bad to want the best for them. but I'd let them accept it at their own pace.

Does the farmer force the seed to grow? All you can do is plant the seed, be a nurturing friend and a guiding light. I will never follow a god that I fear, for fears sake. I understand reverance, but it almost becomes like stalkholm syndrome when you follow out of fear. Jesus never raised a hand, only a warning although he did have a temper when it came to hypocrisy. As Gandi said, I like your Christ, but not you christians. One cannot force faith. A forced faith is a forced lie. Pray and seek guidance,that's all I can recommend.

well said

well its your choice to keep on trying and im not saying you shouldn't. but as a atheist my thought goes like this. hell doesn't exist so why should i worry about it. and even if god and hell exist why would i follow a god that sends every one that doesn't follow him to hell. that would a dictator not a god that does good, and i wouldn't want to follow him anyway.
kakashe
well god created us so its only fair we worship him and devote are lives to him i mean we can still party get drunk and have fun.
yaasshat
Huh... Party and get drunk.... If you're a Christian as you say, be careful of how you represent yourself. I know that was a tad judge mental on my part, but if you want to lead others, you lead by example.
