What is the lake of fire? What is it's purpose? Is the lake of fire eternal hell? Is there any hope of escape for those cast into this lake?
http://bible-truths.com/lake1.html
Then the link leads them back to the first lake of fire series. I know for a fact that many have followed that link back here as I've gotten questions. Most of the people that are from traditional Christendom think I'm nuts but several have read at least some of the papers and their lives have changed. And it's interesting that several non believers that have rejected Christianity for the insanity of the teachings have told me that now things are making sense.
God draws those whom he will. This is a simple silent witness and although most won't take the effort to look some will...and it is enough. This can be done without teaching and without arguing and just providing a witness. Just a thought and it's what I've done for several years now.

Hello Arion! I had to "steal" your signature line :) I'm using this phrase in another Christian forum as my signature/profile and I hope God uses it to draw more to Him!
God bless

Every one of 'us' is a testamant to the hunger and thirst that is out there and will continue till this age is over, and beyond, I believe. People believe because of the foolishness of preaching, though it's God that gives faith. I don't know how many hits B-T gets in an average month, but I'm guessing many of the new hits (and probably most) read the subject headings and say to themselves "Not for me." And they would be right....for now.

"Not for me"
I did that for a few months. But from time to time used to open the front page, glancing the paper titles and thinking "this guy must be a nutjob". I'm glad I'm one too now! :D
"Locking the door behind us"
Agree with both Kat and Dave. We can't help someone understand and believe. On the other side God uses us, even the preaching being foolish. So I'm always trying to find a "happy medium" where God leads me on the WHO and HOW and WHEN to testify. Failed miserably so far, but I hope to have at least 1 person to which I can fully explain what I learned and see this person being blessed and teaching others. Besides my wife of course, for which I'm very glad that she believes the "crazy things" I discuss with her!
God bless
Levy
Dave in Tenn:
I hope that happens, Levy.
For me it was minutes after opening the site, not months, but there were many years when it wasn't 'for me' either.

Eventually we will find people that believe in the most unexpected places, and people incredible stubborn on the places where we would supposedly expect believers.
(somewhere in the holy book, there is prove for that, I am sure)

I am indeed, thanks brother. We have seen that some of the people to which we comment on these topics and don't run away immediately, are the ones we never expected to see a spark of interest. Praying to see more than a spark!
God bless!
