it is not for man to convince
you can lead a man to there truth but if they cants drink it in trust god knows you tried
can any be forced to that we cant see advantage to seek to do?
respect that in time the seed you planted ,in love will grow
to push a man to do the right thing is assult
god wishes only we love,
in gods time not mans ,its not a race you plant the seed and then trust god
have faith

You don't have any control over what anyone else can believe.
The only thing you can do is take the high road when someone is mean towards you and your faith.
Lead by example and don't stoop to their level. You never know who might be watching your actions and reactions. You may end up damaging someones idea of Christianity if you react negatively but you could end up bringing someone closer to the truth by your positive reaction.
Remember what Christ said in Matthew 7:6 "Do not give dogs what is sacred; do not throw your pearls to pigs. If you do, they may trample them under their feet, and then turn and tear you to pieces.

Some of the Real Mean Questions I don't bother with.
Just Tell the Truth, GOD will Annoint those Words and they will go Deep Into Whoever HE wants them to, and Later, HE will use Those Words to Hopefully Get them Saved.
FreeWill--it is Up to Them.
BUT GOD Will Give them a Chance (lots Really), Through The "Word".

Good question, and hard to do. Try to tell them of Jesus and the Fathers love for them. Hard to do when they hate you or Jesus or our Father. Then if they do not want to hear the truth , shake the dust off your feet and go on. Better you let them go to hell then let them take you with them.

You pass a law to make them believe.

sometimes they are just not ready and the more you try to make them believe the more irritated they will become. We can not force onto others what we know to be the truth. Pray for them, I will too. GOD bless

You don't get them to believe, or really you can't get them to believe. That would be God's job, the Holy Spirit will work on their hearts and then they will listen to God speaking through you.

BY showing how this beleif has affected you to the point where you don't need to preach or tell them about anything. It will be very powerful.

U can't. You are asking the question, not answering. By that logic, you are the learner, and are the one to listen. Do not think that God doesn't notice these small details.
