Description

I believe in LOVING people into our RELATIONSHIP with Jesus, not forcing our “religion” on them.

The font makes it hard to realize what words I'm putting emphasis on...

Yes, another stamp, but I've been meaning to do this one for awhile.

Disclaimer: No one is forcing you to look at this or read this. I am not trying to force my beliefs on you.
If you do not agree with something please do not comment. And for all you out there who are now agnostic, or atheist, or some other religion, because some Christian insulted your personal beliefs, or shove God down your throat, Let me personally be the first to apologize. (But I'm not going to apologize for my beliefs, I will stand for what I believe in.)

If you don't like this then: don't fav or comment, but DO click the previous page button on your browser please. Everyone has different opinions and beliefs, please respect mine. Nobody needs the drama. Thank you.

"I have a relationship with Jesus Christ."
"So you're religious?"
"No."
"But you said-"
"I said I have a RELATIONSHIP, not a RELIGION."

Just explaining why I used the word relationship, and not religion.

To Christians:
This stamp is about respecting people who aren't the same religion as you are. People who aren't Christians don't like to have any religion "stuffed down their throat" especially ours. The best way to help them understand us and our faith, and to help them accept what we believe, is to show them love and live it trough our lives. In case no one else has noticed, lots of fellow Christians or people that call themselves Christians aren't following God's Word when He said that first and foremost to Love God, and to Love others. Just be loving, not forceful. As they say you can get more flies with honey than with vinegar. Gentle persuasion beats brute force.

To everybody:
I have seen all different kind of fights where the so called "Christian" was trash talking people who weren't just like them. Most of those people turned out to be trolls. Just trying to give Christians a bad name.
We as Christians are known for what I call the "loud ones" that affiliate with our group, but really don't support the ideas and morals that the sincere Christians have. There are radicals in every group. So please don't judge us all by that one bad experience with a rude jerk who doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut.

I will not force my religion on anyone, I will most likely disagree, but I won't fight about it with you. Different personalities and opinions are part of what makes all people individuals. If you respect me, I will respect you.

If someone asks me a sincere question about being Christian and what it is to be a Christian, I will tell them. It's an invitation they gave me to share what I believe with them, I'm not forcing them to believe it, and it's up to the person to decide if they want to believe what I tell them or not.
