Last Sunday after attending a mass, a woman approached me, and she was selling this necklaces with the Virgin Mary and Jesus back to back. Well at first she forcefully held me on my shoulder asking me to wear it and to pay for it. I refused, coz I have not intentions of buying anything... and then she said, "Don't you want to be saved?" Isn't that so irritating to hear! She doesn't seem to know anything about what she's saying. Good thing I also don't want to argue that day, but I left her with a frown in my face and an angry heart for what she have told me. I can see now how much job the church needs. Alot of people are misled by their own convictions and their own belief. Im not sure if she's really stupid or just there to make money. How would you react if something like this happen to you? And what's the good thing to say to this people to shut them up...

People like her are indeed mislead, ignorant and blind. These people are trying to exploit ones faith in God. We actually need to pray for such people, cause arguing with them will lead you nowhere, it will only make matters worse. These people don't have the slightest idea of what they are trying to sell. Cause Jesus is not for sale, he is absolutely FREE. He paid the ultimate price on the cross of Calvary...
