I thought #4 was funny. Starts yelling at some guy that bumped into him then he goes to the next person and says 'Do you know about Jesus?'. Lol. :)

#8 was nice too, 'Might Get Beat Up'. And the one where he says, 'I don't know! I don't know the answer to that question! He's going to hell!'

This video was interesting, though pretty sad in a way. The end was true though, they are just excuses not to tell others.

Don't you think it would be hard to have any non-religious friends though if we were expected to preach to them. I'm sure you would eventually get one of those responses.

He wasn't calling to always preach, merely to not be afraid to share one's beliefs. In Christian circles, often we let our fears of other's reactions keep us from sharing the good news. IN the video, you see the most commonly used excuses to avoid discussing our relationship with Christ with others. And we do have good news, and if you do have good news, you share it.

Hey, after all, you're the one who wants us to discuss things and be willing to discuss. That means both Christian and non-Christian should be willing to talk about faith y/:)

Doesn't mean you get in people's faces....but it also means to we should not let our fear of rejection to define our positions.

I think the IN YOUR FACE Christians do turn away people from Christianity. I feel a more subtle method should be approached. Christians do not need to be obnoxious to be heard.

This is true. I think for the most part It's not Christians who stir up that anger it the message. It just rubs non believers the wrong way. It's also insulting to them to hear that there is a way that is right and it is not their way. Jesus was pretty patient and meek with the message...unless provoked by the religious leaders...and look what happened to him. I'm just saying it' really not us they hate but God. :sstopwar:
