Hello..
Tricky situation. One of my best guy friends isn't a christian. He used to be..but got angry at God and stuff. It's only been like a year ago..and he thinks it's so foolish of him to have even been a christian...He's really a good friend. He's helped me with so much and really cares...He's changed...and it makes me sad. -_-. I try sharing the gospel with him sometimes..but it only makes him angry. I don't want to see him end up in hell. Thanks...

If this helps or not

on judgement day everyone will be given a second chance to learn the gospel and though they may not end up ion the celestrial kingdom they can go to the terestrial or telestrial kingdom

he needs someone to lean on, and shoulder to cry on.
be there for him, and share God's word. if he was once a christian, i'm sure he will come around!

be there for him ... pretty much all you can do is pray for him and let God work inside of your friend.

If i knew what he was mad about, maybe i could help a little more, but i'll take a shot at it.
In many cases, God wants us to plant the seed in other's hearts. Therefore, if you learn about his situation in relation to God's Word and how God is, then maybe you can convince him that whatever happened was for a good reason, God still loves him, God does not do things to destroy (mentally, physically, emotionally, etc) His children, there is a such thing as Satan, through faith and God's grace, He gives is the strength to endure and/or overcome all adversities, etc etc.

He's mad because he's had a lot of crap happen in his life..and every night he used to read the Bible and pray to God...he didn't hear God's voice and didn't feel anything. He just got tired...and it's really sad..because he was a better christian then compared to most people now...and yet even still he lost his faith.

That often happens, and it's normal to relatively new Christians. People try to listen for some magical voice booming from Heaven, or just a small voice in their head, but God doesn't speak in either of those ways. God speaks to the heart, not to the mind. When I pray and ask God what He wants for me, then I get this feeling, almost like a small burden or a conviction on my heart, what I need to do. Tell this guy when goes to pray, to ask God to teach him how to hear His voice, and tell him never to give up, because that's exactly what Satan wants. If I know my Heavenly Father at all, I know He loves it when His children ask Him to teach them things, and God will honor those requests. I'll be praying for you and your friend.

Btw the exact same thing happened to me, because I wanted to be closer to God than anybody else, and I tried sooooo hard to get closer to God, but I was dissapointed. I ended up becoming extremely mad because I tried so hard but didn't get anywhere. "When you ask, you do not recieve, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures." James 4:3. If this guy is seeking God so that he can get what he wants, God will refuse his requests. God did the same thing to me. Keep that in mind.
