I would have thought that YOU would take evangelism seriously, if anyone would. Come on, convert me! Show me by your behavior the fruits of the spirit! Embody Paul’s Corinthian sermon for me! I’m waiting to see some real Christianity lived by some non-Catholics relying on Holy Scripture! So far, just a bunch of prideful bibliolators.

PNSN constantly tells others how to be saved. He doesn't hold back one bit.

Come on, convert me!

Only the Holy Spirit can do that work, JA.

John 16:7:11 7Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. 8 And when he comes, he will convict the world concerning sin and righteousness and judgment: 9concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; 10 concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no longer; 11 concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged.

As far as the fruit of the Spirit, the fruit is not what arbitrary demands someone makes about another and claims that those must be the fruit of conversion and the fruit of the Spirit. And the list of the fruit of the Spirit is found in Galatians, not Corinthians.....

Galatians 5:22-23 22But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.

>> Come on, convert me!<<

You need to address that comment to God. It’s not we who convert. God draws people to Him as He chooses. We can only point the way.
