Re: You cannot preach hatred and be a Christian -

The original poster falls into the trap that all the atheists, liberals and false Christian fall into. And they do so most willingly.
This trap is the (false) conviction that "I can do whatever I want and I do not wish to stop some inappropriate and immoral behavior (i.e. drugs, playing video games, or pressing the various openings of my digestive tract into service as sex organs). God is OK with my evil behavior and you people should stop pointing it out because you are making me feel bad."
How can our spreading the Word of our Savior possibly be construed as hate? Mark 16:15-16 commands: "Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned."
In fact, Proverbs 24:11-12 condemns US if we do not. Rescue the perishing, as the song says.
"Come Unto Me. Put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath." (Matthew 19:14, Job 1:11).
