Bible Question:
Hi, How to lead a person with a perverted and biased mind against religions to accept Jesus Christ as his saviour? Any successful story to tell? Your guidance, please. FytRobert |
Bible Answer: FytRobert, I feel that God calls us to himself. We can only be an instrument that God uses to effect this. We need to be open to what God is doing in the lives of others and be able to respond when the opportunity arises. God also warns us that peoples hearts can be hardened against Him. When they are this way God will only put up with it for so long. Only prayer and a good relationship with God will give you the discernment you need to know when, if and what to say to this type of person. In general unbelievers will look at our actions more than they listen to our words. God said that outsiders will know us by our love, but always be ready with The Word when and if questions ever do come up and don’t ever be afraid to profess your faith and what God has done for you. Hope this may be of some help, Barabbas |
