How do you feel when someone directly tells you ...
#3
RE: How do you feel when someone directly tells you ...
After coming out as an atheist to my former pastor who then informed me that I was going to burn in hell, I told him that it was HIM and Christians like him who had caused me to fall away from the faith. I then told him I'd see him in hell and reminded him of this little gem in his favorite book...

Matthew 18:6 (NIV)

6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. (Jesus speaking regarding the day of judgment and what will happen to whom)

EDIT: To highlight the loving threats of Jesus.
