I didn't beat any Indians either.. It's not my job to make converts. I take His word, it's the Holy Spirit who makes converts.... Jim

With love and understanding. Do not argue. Jesus commanded his apostles that if someone didn't want to listen to shake the dust off their feet & to keep moving.
Matthew 10:14-- Wherever anyone does not take you in or listen to your words, on going out of that house or that city shake the dust off your feet.
Do not force them to listen, most people will listen if they don't feel any pressure to change overnight. It takes time. Be patient.
Jesus was the perfect example on how to teach people the truth. So read & study the Bible, especially about Jesus' ministry. The more you do that the better you will get. And you will have more people respond to your message.

Hi, I was never in favour of forced Bible sermonizing I think that you must lead by example and action speaks louder than words in these neo-pagan times of ours.Too many potential converts to Jesus are put off and driven away by loud mouthed evangelists and end up embittered frustrated people.
Jesus came to set the prisoners free and we must do what He would want us to do to help set so many free to come to Him,and I have found that this can be far better achieved by Christian action rather than swallowing the Bible and spouting it word for word at confused and hurt people.

We spread the truth through tolerance and love. I don't believe one has to be Christian to be saved. For me, salvation by faith alone is impossible. I think good deeds have a role in salvation. Remember, tolerance and love was what Jesus taught.

Well, for one thing you can stop demeaning Christians of other denominations (I do not accuse you personally). You will know them by their love. I know Atheists with more love for their fellow man than some so called Christians on this site, and I am a Christian.

We have no power to make anyone believe. That's the Holy Spirit's job.
We can only obey God and let Him use us to spread the truth.

Or you could just mind your own business and live your own life.
Christianity ideally should be more like the understanding in 12 step programs....a program of attraction rather than promotion.
If you are living your life according to your belief system, you are happy, serene, prosperous...this will be very attractive to those living outside of God's word.

Judging by your past answers, it's hard to believe that you are a christian. If you don't know the truth, then maybe somebody ought to tell you, but don't say "fellow christians" which implies that you yourself are one.

Only a few will believe. And the few will be persecuted. The non-believers will rule until the appropriate time in the end. And yeah, false religion will go down too.
