He is my cousin and I love him like a brother, He is immature and almost impossible to reason with. Everything in life to him is a joke. He lives in his own fiction bubble. He was not raised with a very good family as I was. His parrents are divided on the issue of God. So He has disided to try and create his own truth to life, He is constantly expossed to peer pressure, they have a bad influence on hm. I know that he is not saved, I only know that it hurts to see my only friend slowly slip away. I've tryed to tell him about Jesus, all that I can do know is pray for him. I'm asking is their anyone that can pray for him, or that could give me some tips to try and reach him? It's hard to deal with the fact of his future eternal destination, forever without God. We are good friends and we live so far apart, I wish that I could have been a better influence in his life. Would anyone please pray for him?

Father, in the name of your son, we come together to ask for mercy and grace on this young man. Please guide him in your ways, please set his feet on a path to your righteousness and healing hand. Please help splinterjah in speaking with his cousin, show him what to say, and most importantly, show him what not to say. Help us listen to others, be kind, loving, merciful, forgiving, lifting people up and loving them...allowing you to do the work of transformation in their hearts.
Lord, you have promised that whatever two agree on in your Name, you will surely do it. We ask humbly in the name of your son that splinterjah's cousin will come to know the peace and joy of being born again in Jesus Christ.
In His name we pray, amen.

ofcourse will pray for him. The best witness u can be is letting Him see Jesus in u. I learned that the hard way when I was first saved oh man was really pushy and turned some off have learned over the years sometimes it's best to show and not always tell. smile have unsaved loved ones too so know how that is

One pray is powerful. We as humans never win a single soul for God the Holy Spirit does that. You think pray is your last option but it is the only option.
Back off from your cousin. You planted the seed now pray. That's like water for that seed you planted. You don't know his heart only the outward appearance which you are judging. Remember all sin is the same and what he may struggle with you have the victory over, but you may struggle with a different sin.
Back off. The Holy Spirit is a dove not a hawk attacking.

Well this is one thing that you have to take to God. Pray and ask God to give you the wisdom and strength that you need that way you can make him see the truth that what he is doing is wrong. Let him know that there is hope and comfort from all the bad. I will pray for him and for you if you need anything email me ok I am there for you as you go through this hard time.

Yes,I'll pray for him. And you keep praying for him too. Also be sure to set a good Christian example for him in how you live your everyday life, and don't shove Jesus down his throat. Unless he gets to a point where that's what he wants. And he's not there yet. Be patient. God works wonders.

Of course, but your faith in God is put to the test as well. Let go and let God do it! You cannot make him do what you think is right for him to do..All you can really do is pray for him that the perfect timing given by God comes. Unsolicited advice wont do the trick. Have faith in God, where nothing is impossible...

Sure we will pray? But will you do me a favor and never stop praying and being that witness he needs it sounds to me like the Lord has given a burden to you to pray yourself keep on and in the words of Churchill never, never, never, never, give up believing he can be Saved! He is only one decision away just like us all!!!

I don't believe in it my self it doesn't make sense that someone would be sent to Hell just coz they didn't believe. But its up top him, hes got make the desicion on his own. He has to have faith him self. How u know ur religion is the truth though? All can think is be a good friend to him but no pressure him. How u know he's not saved?

You can see the future?
Look, live your life as an example, you can not force anyone to change, if they come to a point in life where they feel that they need to know the truth, they will surely find it.
