For your consideration

[e=mv^2]

I have noticed several threads in which christians are encouraging non-christians (especially pagans) to remain non-christian.

Have a look at this thread. (http://www.christianforums.com/t1792046)

I know that we are supposed to bless our enemies but I can not see telling a pagan to remain pagan or giving them advice on how to fix thier coven troubles.

Is it just me?

Telling a Christian to remain a nonchristian is certainly an unloving thing to do. It goes directly against the 2nd greatest commandment, to love our neighbor as ourself. People that don't encourage nonchristians to repent of their sins and to turn to Christ are contributing to their eternal damnation in hell.

Well, there were a total of three Christians that contributed to the thread, and they were liberal ones at that. One of them I know is a newer believer.

1) Why do we let the liberals seem more loving?
2) Why do we let them do the outreach?

I should be clear that I did not intend to call any particular person into question with this. This was just an example of the issue I wanted to discuss.

Right, I'm not going to take someone to trial about this, I also don't think that's what the thread is for. But I'm asking where are we in our responsibility in this whole thing? If we are not loving people or reaching out, we can expect a lot more of this.

1) Why do we let the liberals seem more loving?

because they are (theological praxis is more centered on Jesus is Lord, i think is the reason)

2) Why do we let them do the outreach?

because they are better at it

1) Why do we let the liberals seem more loving?
They only seem that way because they tend to not preach a balanced message. They're "ear ticklers", therefore, their message is more widely accepted.2) Why do we let them do the outreach? If you mean outreaching on these boards, then perhaps more of us do need to hammer home the message of repentance and sure judgment if not done.
