Atheist Penn Jillette Describes Encounter with Christian

Postby DeWayneTN » December 20th, 2008, 3:05 am

Thought this was an interesting video, especially the part about caring enough to evangelize.

http://www.breitbart.tv/?p=245243

For those who can't see the video, Penn describes an encounter with a fan after a show where he gives him a Bible and it had an effect on him. He also says he doesn't respect any Christian who doesn't care enough to try and proseltize, saying if you really believe there's a Hell and you don't do everything you can to stop someone from going, how much do you really have to hate someone to do that?

I agree with Penn......not to share the gospel is a horrendous sin in my view.,,,but then I am an evangelist.

HEAVY words and to think that hate is a work of the flesh. This is a great thought for us to ponder. :oops:

This is what Teller had to say about it:

Man, that Penn Jillette .... she sure is ugly.





:lol:



No, j/k, that was moving to watch. He was absolutely moved. And, that's one step that someone took that may ultimately be part of the walk of this guy to eternal life. Let's hope!

Great post.
