And, just to have it on record:
I don't want to convert the world to my version of Christianity, or even Christianity in general... I *do*, however, want to change the part of the world I live in for the better. The best way to do that, in my opinion, is thusly:
* live my life for God
* answer questions like the one you posted, giving proper Biblical answers
* lead by example as best I can (no one is perfect, no matter how much some Christians would like to think they are)
* pray, both for myself and my friends and family, my city/state/federal government and the other members of the world
* If someone asks me about Jesus, show that person how to find Him, then let him/her make his/her own decision. In other words: standing in the French Quarter with a sign saying "TURN OR BURN" is right out. ;-) |
