But I could care less about the gospel offending a nonbeliever...Jesus said it would be so.

There are ways to discuss religion without being obnoxious and insulting. I don't have a problem with people saying "this is what we believe and why" but I think it's incredibly insulting and patronizing to say something like "One day you will believe. Everyone will...on bended knee." There are ways to discuss religion without threatening others with the afterlife. If you don't care about insulting all those who don't happen to agree with you, then have at it. I've certainly heard worse. But if this is your way of spreading the Gospel to unbelievers, I don't think it is a very effective method.

Stone, Im not threatening any one with anything, and I dont mean to condescend. I view my "belief" as a fact of my (and your)being...it is of no consequence except to you whether you believe or dont believe. If one is offended by the fact that one day, because of his contempt for God, he will stand condemned...so be it. I dont want any man to suffer this; but there are folks (I guess, like you)who for now, enjoy separation from the God who made and loves them. In the end this means two deaths for them.
