Flirt To Convert???
 
What's up with this? Would anyone here want their children partaking in such an 'outreach'? I have never heard of such a thing, and hope my kids never do either!

FLIRT TO CONVERT

:crazyluv

Okay, what do you think?

Better to flirt and convert than flirt and do other things.

So it is okay to 'tease' a person to Christ? Is that an honest way to convert people? Would you have liked a man to have acted like he was interested in you personally only to later let you know it was all an act to get you to an altar for repentace? Also, what about the opportunity that will accompany such tactics? Some people, as you know, will let their emotions carry them further once they are involved. This, IMHO, is a real danger. Any time you 'lie' it always leads to sin.

What happened to to the Spirit drawing them. I mean I use ice breakers (no not the gum) to kind of ease people but flirt and convert? That's ridiculous.

I didn't say it was okay - just made a statement.
