I am a fairly new Christian and there has been a great transformation in my life. I have a friend who has been asking about salvation, and I want to go about it the wrong way.I don't want to force her. I invited her to church and she has come a few times and she wants to know about it. What is some good scripture in the bibile to share with her? Thank you.

Have her start reading the whole thing. All of it has its own significance. Just tell her that the majority of Christians read the bible at least one whole time through. Also, it would be a great way to become familiar with the faith. If need be, you two can read together, so you both can provide each other with input on what you believe the text means. God bless you and your friend.

I think you should pray really hard for your friend. Also, fasting might work. I prayed for my husband to get saved for a long time. Then, I tried fasting too and he got saved. Keep encouraging your friend to come to church with you.
