My brother married a girl who is an evolutionist even tho Jesus was a part of our lifes growing up. We were informed by him that he also is an evolutionist. I am saved myself. I want some advice on how to talk to them or if I should. Please be serious because it is a serious matter with the end coming soon.

All science is from God... thus all science is good... man just dose not understand all of it yet..and never will in this mortal world...Talk to them in the same way you would anyone else... in Love... Get some advice from your denomination. There is a lot of helo out there on this subject... ask what your church uses and get to know it throughly... and get to know the other side as well...so you can counter acuratly...
I am stromgly of The Christian Faith...yet there is much in the scientific study of evolutin that is scientificaly sound... it is just that the theory will never be proven because it can not be scientificly observed and studied...I personaly believe in much of the evolultionist study...except that man did not evolve... the rest is legitimetly debateable...
here is a link to my pov on the creation / evolution stuff... not exactly what my Christian brothers and sisters will accept on some points... but as it dose not affedt ones Salvation... it is free to debate.

Poorly. Ineffectually. I'm assuming that they also don't believe the fairy tales anymore? Because evolution isn't a religion, it's a scientific theory. The two don't really have anything to do with one another. Anyway, assuming so, imagine how you would make yourself believe in santa clause again. Once you have the answer to that, you'll understand. A head wound might work, if it's severe enough.

Change his glasses! By this I mean to help him put on the correct worldview, the Biblical worldview. Explain to him that there are two ways of looking at the universe and the world, Creation or Evolution. Explain to him that by putting on the Creation "glasses" it can explain more things and is more reasonable than the evolution "glasses" he is currently wearing. Don't rush things, take your time to explain things. Bring him to the point where he keeps conceding that the evolutionary view does not hold substance. And pray!

Evolution has nothing to say about jesus, for or against. The only people threatened by evolution are the fundamentalists and biblical literalists.

Maybe your brother believes your god created evolution, some people think that you know... I mean, if it's not like they are satanic or into any actual bad stuff, then isn't their own beliefs their own business?

You should not talk to them and you are not saved - it is an illusion and the end is not coming soon - you are suffering from delusion.

The real question is why you are so upset that someone does not agree with you.
sounds pathological to me.
Grow up.

Talk to God about your family before you talk to your family about God. Then just tell them how God has changed your life, they can argue with anything. But they cant say your story isn't your story.

People who turn their back on God will usually find their way back. Pray for him and her. Let your life be the example. Don't preach you will just lose them.
