Bible Question: Thanks for the words of wisdom Lionheart, oh yeah by the way so i don't confuse anybody, my other screen name is dickesoan. I just like this screen name better. Anyways, that boy that i was asking about, he had told somebody that he wasn't a christian because he seen so many hypocritical ones. So it's not that he doesn't believe, he's just not seen anybody walk the talk. What am i suppose to do? I really want him to come to God. I've been praying for him. And i am willing to be his friend and encourage him. Is that all i need to do, just keep praying for him? |
Bible Answer: WingsofAngels, Godbless you dear sister,it has always been peoples heart to be critical.People will oft times will read our lives before ever picking up a bible. People will make judgements about God based on what they see in us. Romans 3:23 tells us we've all fallen short. We are all under the same sentence, the thing that differentiates you and I from your friend at this present time is that you and I have Gods gift of grace in his precious Son our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and thats where you want to get your friend to. A couple of things here dear heart. 1. Let him see the Christ in you living in what you do.Colossians 1:27. 2.Jesus tells us to let the light shine Matt 5:16. Walk in such a way that it's clearly evident what your all about. That doesnt mean ya gotta be perfect.It's just not doable for us at this time. But when we are walking the talk consistently people will respond to that in one way or another. Read Isaiah 55:11 it will help give you some perspective. Keep being his friend,keep praying for him. Just make sure you are gaurding your heart and getting lots of advice from fellow believers. It might even be best if the brothers get in there with him and try and build a friendship with him and work with him.He will either respond or not.In any case then you have done what you can. I'll remember you and this boy in my prayers. Keep the faith dear. In Christ, lionheart you |
