Threats

These are all "less than charitable" quotes directly emailed to me from supporters of OCC. Are supernatural threats in the nature of a children's charity?

I tell you, Nay: but,except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.

I know that hell is real and God is fair. There is not total clarity in the Bible about exactly what age a child is accountable for having accepted or rejected Jesus Christ.

Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the close of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all law-breakers,42 and throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.”

Any religion other than that which wholeheartedly follows Jesus Christ is bound in eternal darkness.

One day, you’ll have to stand to account that you spent much of your midnight hours fighting against that.

Hell is very real, very painful, very dark, very lonely and a place.

One day you will understand how the reality of hell

If you reject him, he will reject you....Hell is a consequence for rejecting God.

his wrath is resting upon those who are disobedient

What do you think OCC participants are like? Are some of them like some of their supporters? Surely similar people take part as those who send shoeboxes and comments like those above. What pressure to convert must there be from the kinds of people who keep telling me that people who don't accept their version of Christianity are going to hell. What sort of pressure do you think it is like for a child to be threatened like this? And so it is with OCC: 'we believe in the resurrection of the lost to damnation'.
