When I go on my church trip to NC, we're gunna learn about this...
I have this one friend who gets on my nerves with that alot. She pretty much hates Christians. One day after PE at school, for examle. She was talking about how she found God on MySpace or something. She said she had commented him and asked if she was going to Hell for being an athiest. The person replied saying that she wouldn't if she repented and so on. She asked me "How am I suppost to do that? Kill someone, or an animal or something?" I told her no. That some Muslims thought they had to kill a Christian to get to heaven. She found that very funny and declared that she had "Found [her] new religion!" rolleyes

yeah....I bet you that on average, I think that they are a stereotype of people overaggerating how much they are pressured to convert, it's a matter of what's easiest to shoot down the christians, I'm sorry if this is blunt but damn, I'm sick of hearing it. it's the same thing for people trying to get us to push away our religion, but you don't hear about that.


yup. it's very frustrating, but it goes along with how Jesus said they hated him so they will hate us. bleh persecution!

Sometimes the best way is too love them and be an example. The lead singer of Casting Crowns explains this all very well in a certain video.

Just be an example, when they're ready to come, they will.

not that my advice counts for too much anymore but i say still hang. back before i converted i had an unspoken rule with my non-believer friends "Kepp thy religion to thy ******** self" it really should have been the 11th comandment.

I say that the more one talks about one's religion, the more annoying one becomes, and the less interested one's loved-ones will be in Christianity. The best way, in my opinion, to evangelize to those who may be wary of Christianity is to treat them with love and kindness rather than by telling them that they have to convert to Christianity or else. I know it sounds cliche, but actions really do speak louder than words.
