They can't see outside the box, and if someone is different from them and what the Bible says, then "OMG YOU'RE GOING TO HELL!"
I wasn't always a Christian, I was 'outside the box' for years. I drank heavily to the point of alcoholism, used drugs, and hung around anyone who wanted to party. My best friend(a former 70's punk) was a self-proclaimed witch.
If you say that homosexuality is a sin, then you must think that those who are homosexual are sinners and thus, think that they're going to hell. Everyone is already going to Hell. It doesn't matter how 'nice' you are or what great and wonderful things you do for others-that does not get you eternal life(and the escape from Hell). Homosexuals(just like everyone else) need to accept Jesus as their personal savior to be forgiven of their sin and earn salvation.
..then just leave them alone and stop preaching all of this bullshit

I can tell you right now that nothing you have said has had any sort of impact on me whatsoever except piss me off even more.
I don't expect you to convert right here and now. But I surely hope at some future time your eyes would be opened to the truth before it's too late.
..And so your petty threats will not work on me.
These are not "threats", it's words of warning that you should take seriously while you still have the chance.
..And stop trying to convert people
Sorry, if I stopped doing that then I wouldn't be true to my God.
If all we have to do is find Jesus, why do we have to stop being gay? I can understand if you're concerned that people will go to Hell and want to save their souls, but if that's the case you should just say "hey, all you people who don't believe in Jesus - you should accept Him so you don't burn forever." not "hey, stop being gay or you'll burn forever."
Why is she even concerned about our souls in the first place? Let US deal with it. And she even said everyone is going there anyway, so what's the big deal? I don't understand why she can't just stop and realize there's other religions that people belong to and that trying to convert someone to Christianity just offends people, like it has me. Not to mention that this whole "testimony" is offensive, not to mention ripped from someone else's journal.
I can't remember the exact verse, but there is a verse in the old testament which states that if a Christian sees someone who's doing evil, and doesn't warn the person that's performing the evil, and that person dies...The evil person will go to hell, but the righteous person (or Christian) will have that person's blood on their hands.
However it also says that if the righteous person warns the evil person, and the evil person does nothing then the righteous person should just let it go.
So I have no idea either why she keeps trying to convert you, especially in this manner.

Unfortunately, not everyone is as open-minded, tolerant, and as awesome as you are, my right-hand-path friend.
That means I'm going to hell. D:
