Unfortunately there is no way to get it thru their thick skulls.......
You can always pray for someone even without their knowledge.
Read and study Matthew 6:5-15

I never grow tired of the athiests and pagans. Quite the contrary, I enjoy listening to their gabble. I accept their religions; I don't necessarily believe them. It something that I will agree to disagree.
They are often stuck on their beliefs. That is pretty much why I can't get through them. I always pray for them; whether or not I know them.
The only thing we can do for them is answer any questions that they may have.

Oh man..... (stratches head)... listen, I believe that there is an after life and spirits and all that jazz... but seriously... just because I dont 100 million percent believe in heaven and hell doesnt mean that I am going to either. Get out in the real world... maybe it wont be too late for you to stop being brain washed... haha.. GOOD LUCK WITH THAT! And if there is a heaven... then I'll do as Ron White would say to "The LOrd All Mighty" as we are watching my life ... HAH! Watch this!! This is the good part!

Yet again you preface your question with the provebal CHRISTIANS ONLY PLEASand again I have to remind you that you're in an OPEN FORUM. If you want to address Christians only than go to a site that's designed for Christian conversation/chat. You are making your life a HELL ON EARTH trying to change peoples minds. Why not just accept that Atheists and Pagans don't beleive as you do and move along. PEACE!

Always keep in mind who the enemy truly is. It's not pagans or aethiest or Muslims, etc. "we wrestle not against flesh but against the principalities and powers in the air".
Most of the time telling an aethiest that they are going to hell is offensive to them. I'm not at all saying we shouldn't tell the truth in love, but sometimes there is a more kosher way to say things to people.
Aetheist expect Christians to tell them they are going to hell and that is why many aethiest are aethiest. They wont believe in a God that lets bad things happen and then sends people to hell.
So a better way of stating our faith may be to say the same thing in an opposite way. Such as "God created man, man chose to defy God and sinned, God prepared a way that we can live with Him in heaven through eternity and that way is His Son Jesus Christ who took on the sins of man, took our place on the cross and was crucified so that we can be saved."
I guess it is the glass half/full, half/empty verbage.
If we say, God's going to send you to hell if you dont believe in Him vs. God is providing a way for us to live in eternal peace, you get a totally different response.
Christians know that God doesnt send us to hell, we choose to go there but the difference they are hearing is God loves you vs. God hates you.
And yes, always pray for them. You dont have to tell them that you are praying for them, that should be a unction that the Holy Spirit gives you.
I pray for people all the time and they never know.
That's the beauty of it, we constantly intervene with Satan's plans to harm others and he's dumbfounded when his evil plans fail him.
Keep up the good work.
Love in Christ.

Well I allow since they in a religious forum they are searching for truth. Only the Holy Spirit can open there eyes. But telling someone all the time they are going to hell isnt always what they need to hear either. Jesus showed compassion to and sometimes He just told them plainly. So just tell them the word of God and let God take the seed to grow.

Sure, I'm tired of it, but we all know that being a Christian is not easy. Part of that is dealing with non-believers. However, as Christians, we always pray for others to accept Christ and be reunited with the Father. It's said that there is more joy in heaven for one sinner that confesses than for 99 righteous men.

its so annoying, oine made me cry almost cause he keept saying jesus wasnt real
but dont stop praying
pray for them
they are troubled
very
and just realize that maybe in time they might come to christ,
and if not then they are screwd for eternaty
and another thing,
people dont like u to PUSH a religion on them
so saying they are going to hell isnt a nice thing to say
more like letting God get through to them
you need Gods help
and when u witness just being nice is what they need
and showing chirst through you~ =]

I'm tired of hearing everyone on here that is intollerant of others beliefs, Christians and Atheists alike. There are ways to discuss differences without being immature and rude. As far as praying for them, that's a personal decision for you regardless if it is approved of by them.

I believe as Christians we are to tell others about God, and bring his message (gently) to them. However it is the Holy Spirit who does the convicting. Once they hear the message it is out of our control and we have done "our part".
I think non-believers need to know we (Christians) are not, or shouldn't be, trying to scare, force or manipulate them into believing in God. But when you have found something you believe is great of course you want to share it with others! However we should respect someone's choice not to believe even if we don't agree with it.
As far as praying for them, of course keep praying. If the person you are praying for doesn't believe in God anyway what are they afraid of, just don't keep pushing or telling them "Hey I'm praying for you" it sounds like you are just taunting them.
