"Nice haircut!"
I recently (and finally) got a haircut and some people complimented me for that.
I thanked them and said "Yeah, my barber did a really good job on my hair. He's cool."
I feel good about my haircut but very thankful to my barber for what he's done.
"You're such a good, nice man, Gi." Some people would say.
I thanked them and said, "Yeah, God is doing a really good job fixing my sinful character. He's cool."
People would think I am religious for saying that. That ends our conversation because I mentioned God.
It makes sense to me that eternity is man's choice. It's pretty much the product of our choice here on earth. Don't want God in your life right now? Then that's what you get in eternity.

"We're gonna have a very bad snow soon."
Great. That's totally inconvenient. So what should I do? Sleep and hope it's not gonna happen? Sleeping won't change the upcoming snow so it is with our meeting with Our Creator when this dreamlike temporal life is over.
Call me Jesus Freak for sharing my faith. I'm cool with that. But please understand that my confidence is not in my own thinking but in Christ alone. I am concerned most deeply with the fate of human soul more than anything physical or temporary. I pray that your understanding will be opened my unbelieving friend. Truth sets us free from the thinking that we are right just because we think we are.
Questions, violent reactions, objections are always welcome. My Master was mocked, ridiculed, laughed at when He walked this earth. It just makes sense to me if the same thing will happen to me if I follow Him. And hey, I'm cool with that. "Father, forgive them for they don't know what they are doing."
It's not right to hate someone if you really don't know who they are.
