Bible Question: Has anyone confronted someone who claims to know Christ and promotes a false gospel? Ever try witnessing to someone in a cult that has false teachers? |
Bible Answer: I tried to witness to a team of Mormon young men once. The ones that ride bikes and wear uniforms. They were very polite until I told them they were going to hell if they did not repent and believe Jesus was God. The leader turned red in the face and all the niceness left. He was so angry that I would presume to tell him he was not going to heaven. I was surprised at how shook up he was. I decided then to use that method more often. I had read the "ways to witness to cults" methods but they had not effect. They bounced off his mind as if I had said nothing. But when I told him with authority he would wake up in hell and only have himself to blame for being decieved becuase deep down inside he knew that he was following a cult, his head almost exploded. |
