If you have a friend that is unsaved and you want to share your faith with them without arguing about it or losing the friendship how would you go about doing it?

By living your life in front of them and being open and honest about your beliefs....when subjects are bought up about it...and Show your belief.....i for one speak of God in every situation...there is an answer in His word for everything....and apply that to with your friend........example..bad day....say just a short scripture about it....or if they see something they enjoy share it with them that way....After all we are our Beliefs.......
Ones faith and there life cannot be seperated....and if they are one lives a lie..........
But Just be you and do what you know is right...and Pray and seek Gods face about it....and i'm sure it will come as natural as He is !!!!!!!

A good example is always good to show what The Lord has done in your life, and sharing that you have found Jesus, and the Lord is your savior by witnessing to them is good, but don't push or ever argue with this person, tell them how happy you are to have found the Lord, and share your testimony on how it has changed you.

Put their soul above the friendship, and in doing so be a true friend. The only way to see anyone get saved is to tell them the Gospel, that Jesus, who is God, died for our sins on the cross and rose again, and they must believe to go to heaven and not eternal hell.

I would be amazed if your "unsaved" friend will enjoy your sharing as much as you do. Most likely you will lose that friend as soon as you get pushy and let your enthusiasm carry you away.

Let them see the difference in your life! Don't push anything and don't make them feel like they are less than important. This comes from many years of sharing!

By doing, setting an example. Sometimes people can detour people from religion and God by being overally aggressive. Be your self and remain humble and the light of Jesus will shine through you.

I'll give you an answer from the flip side of the coin.
If my best friend TODAY decided to start trying to convert me, I'd tell her to stop...or we wouldn't talk about religion at all.
I wouldn't cut off my friendship with her...only as a last resort.

Personality, I believe that GOD does not makes us equal because he want others to dislike them. Think about the various comparisons: rich vs poor, strong vs weak, popularity vs unpopular, beautiful vs ugly, and etc. Do you think it is fair that he makes some people's life pointless than others; therefore, I truly believe that it is not worth considering the higher power because it could have done better for me and others who feel the same. In addition, it starts by giving appropriate answer, when they need it during times of trouble. Nevertheless, it is best for one to care about themselves and not others because they are pathetic!!!

my momwent through a born again era in the 90's. she tried to forceably convert me. You can suggest it, and if they aren't buying what your selling, make a hard choice. Your faith or friend, because im not sure you can have both.

I just share by example. I don't push or judge. Besides, we are friends for a reason.
