An Atheist who preaches the need to spread the Good News (Gospel of Jesus Christ) better than most Christians

A friend of mine sent me this story on facebook.  (*Thanks Katie!)

I was surprised that an atheist has a better grasp on the importance of spreading the Good News than most Christians do!  Check out the quote below and then watch the video....

**********

The following quote is just one more example of why I feel an urgent need to speak the Gospel to all creation (including YOU!) 

This quote is from the mouth of Penn Gillette (a famous atheist--who said of himself "I am beyond atheist"): 

Here's Penn's quote about Christians, "If you believed that there’s a Heaven and Hell, and that people could be going to Hell, or not getting eternal life, or whatever, and you think that, well it’s not really worth telling them this because it would make it socially awkward . . .  How much do you have to HATE somebody to know that everlasting life is possible and NOT tell them that?

I mean if I believed beyond a shadow of a doubt that a truck was coming at you, and you didn’t believe it, and that truck was bearing down on you -- there is a certain point where I tackle you --and this is more important than that."

My heart is burdened for those who do not know the true Gospel of Jesus.   If I truly care about people...how can I not share this Good News!   Can you see that truck coming??
