Would U Still Worship God If... by frank317: 3:34pm On Sep 23, 2012

A ma once told me (he claimed to be a Jew) that the God he serves is too big to threaten us with hell in order to force us to worship him or bribe us with heaven to make us woership him. God wants us to worship him in truth and in spirit yet we are made to believe that we must worship him or...
So if there was no heaven or hell would u stll have worshipped him? take all insults and turn the other chick for him?

The afterlife is the greatest draw to worship. Its promises mixed in with a heavy does of fear seems to do the trick to draw in the masses. People however are now more keen with what they can make in the current world and are not so willing to wait for the afterlife. That is why so many new Pentecostal churches are springing up promising "miracles and wealth" meanwhile traditional churches (Anglican and Catholic) are losing members.
