I am not sure what you are wanting to know...win friends? However, the Bible teaches us how we can become God's friend. Now that would really be a friendship to treasure! I have many friends because we all share a common bond...our love and service to Jehovah. I have found friends all over the world, and what unites us is our dedication to God. We all have a mutual love and respect for each other because we are one in mind and purpose with Jehovah and his son, Jesus Christ. No matter where I am, I can go to a Kingdom Hall, and I will be in the company of true friends, even though I have never met them before. Why? Because shoulder to shoulder we serve Jehovah together...regardless of race, language, age, geograpogical location, we are united.
Jesus said this...
John 13: 35: "By this all will know that YOU are my disciples, if YOU have love among yourselves.”

“There exists a friend sticking closer than a brother.”
(Proverbs 18:24)
That is *true* friendship.
If a relationship can be 'bought', then it *isn't* a friendship.
How to Make Real Friends :
- We All Need Friends
- - Satisfying Our Hunger for Friendship
- - - Good Friends--Bad Friends

You don't win friends. You earn them by treating others with respect and being kind to everyone you meet.

You have to be very sensitive to others viewpoint. You have to be very helpful. You have to be thoughtful. You have to be consistent.
