Did this person reveal their true motivation?

Question

When a well known Christian here posted this response, was she revealing the true motivation for becoming a Christian?

"we arent here to have a contest just to spread the good news for those who wish to live forever!!!!!!!!!"

Is that what's really behind all the love and charity talk?  Do as I say and you can live forever.  Is there any thought more selfish than the desire to go on forever?  Even if you claim it's only to bask in the glory of God, it's still selfish because it's you that gets the pleasure forever.  How can any deed be pure if there is reward and punishment coming after?

? · Accepted Answer

Christianity in general, is a very self serving religion, reguardless of what people say or think about it.

I dont believe christians go to heaven, cause they act horrible to non believers and other christians as well(has seen enough of the Protestant vs Catholic BS).

? · Answer

Living forever would be a bonus, but it isn't my motivation.  My original motivation was living, period.  My prior existence was hell, pure & simple & His love dragged me out of that pit.

I want everybody to be as filled with joy and His spirit as I am.

EDIT:  I really can't speak to another person's motivation or even if she mispoke or not, you would have to ask her.

Newsflash... We are all going to go on forever, every last one of us, even the ones who deny it. No one goes to heaven by their deeds, no one.
