All we do is repeat what Jesus said.

No, they repeat what they believe Jesus said.

The fact that the world hates Jesus Christ and what He said about eternal destiny and the fact that the world would rather not hear about it is irrelevant

Well, if he said that anyone who doesn't believe in him is going to hell that's a good reason dislike the message, don't you think? Especially if it is supposed to be all based on some kind of "love for the world."

It doesn't bring people over with love but with threats and fear. That's pretty sad.

Some will hear what Christ wants them to hear and will accept His offer of salvation

That's not unconditional love.

Well, this isn't the first I've seen or heard rejection of Christ and His message of salvation and it won't be the last.

It's always good to get to the center of something and see what the real issue is all about.

Christ rejectors are a dime a dozen:

Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. (Matthew 7:13, 14)

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son. This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. (John 3:17-19)

Those are the words of Jesus Christ. Reject them at your own peril.
