I’m amazed at the controversy that my interview with the KISS guy started on GodTube.
It’s divided between those “Christians” who don’t have a clue what I’m doing as I take him through the 10 Commandments, Judgment Day and Hell; and on the other side are those who are proponents of Way of the Master. Fortunately, it’s catapulted the video into the top 40 of the “most discussed” videos on the site, allowing for more people to be exposed to this evangelistic Biblical principle. Here are some sample comments:
ieatfood said: “At first I only watched a little of this video, and was angry at the interviewer at his approach. I was about to spout off about it, but then went back and finished the video. It seemed ok in this instance. Gary seems like a well intentioned guy, which I know, is not grounds for salvation, but deffinately made the interviewer’s job a lot easier. I don’t think that this way of witnessing would work all the time though… I don’t think that we should stand on street corners and shout about God.”
tuneups said: “If Gary gets to heaven, he’ll thank this evangelist, not the ones who patted his back and gave him all the happy thoughts..truth is the ultimate love.”
kissklassics said: “People are railing on this “interviewer” because 99.9% of the people that see this “interview” know that this is the wrong way to spread the word of God. Did Gary walk away a better person after this incident, I doubt it. You spread the word with kindness and warmth, not trickery and aggression. If this person interviewed people this way for the nationally televised programs, he wouldn’t last one day.”

Santos.sensei said:“Bad evangelism…terrible.he is correct on some points..but its not helping this man.”
bizemoma said: “It is amazing how many people believe they will go to heaven because they are a good person. The message is firm “no man comes to the Father execpt through me” Jesus said it all. People need to hear the truth. Praise God for those who are out there reaching the lost.”
