Maybe my spirituality is just different. I don't beleive in human judgement, because it's not my job. The courts deal with issues of the flesh, and God will deal with issues of the spirit. I can show people God's promises in return for a narrow path, but I can not force them down it. If I do, then I have destroyed any chance that I can be of help to them in the future. Does that make sense?

It makes a lot of sense. But keep in mind that there may not be a "future" time when you can help someone in the right way. You can't force anyway to accept God and to choose the narrow path that Jesus has trod before us, but you can yell and scream and point and wave your hands and shoot off flares and bang on the door of their hearts and...well, you get the picture. Similar to what sweetliberty was saying earlier, you wouldn't let a man die in a burning house if you could do something (in fact, I venture to say you'd force him out of the house!!). Why should we do anything less when the man's soul is dying??
