On the other end of this spectrum, your religion should never, ever be used to say "If you don't do what I do, you're going to hell!" That will scare people off for good!
Only if they also believe in the Big Bad Wolf. The only thing "scary" about such comments is the psychological problems they imply in the person saying them.
What makes Christianity so nonsensical is that it's based on a completely flawed premise: a perfect being that makes imperfect things. From that one starting point, the theology spreads out into a host of unbelievable and obviously false premises. True, it also contains many bits of wise and useful tips for behavior, although these are mostly common sense things that one shouldn't need a religion to tell them.
But as an overall world view, it's hopeless, which is true of the Abrahamic religions in general. And, as the recent ISIS massacres show never mind radical Islam in general, it can be hideously dangerous.
Religion is like a rocking chair a lot of work to get nowhere. -

There is a book called The Insanity of God. It talks about a Christian man who goes to Somalia to spread the word of God. He actually has to come back to the U.S. cause things got so bad over there and for other family issues. Then he wonders about Christians around the world and wonders what they know. So he goes to places in the middle east, China, Russia etc What you find out throughout the book is most of the areas he went still don't know about The Bible or are imprisoned, tortured and killed for even having a Bible. Yet their are pockets of Christian churches just learning even as late as the 1990s about Jesus his words and his love. So yes to answer your question the word of God has still has to be preach cause not everyone still knows it.
