You talk to a psychiatrist dear. He will help treat your schizoid delusional mental disorder.
you will then be able to go back to a normal life, free from religious delusions and superstitions.
Good luck.

There is no need. Allow them to see the changes in you. When they ask , that is your chance to witness. Never try to convince anyone.
God will speak for you when you ask. remember to ask within his will.
I remember a time before I was saved. I was very much like Charlie Sheen on 3 and 1/2 men.
When I would call old girlfriends , some would tell me they were born again. I didn't have full grasp of what they were saying , but I soon realized that I had to scratch them off my book.
It doesn't matter what you have done in your passed life. God has promised it would go into a sea of forgetfulness.
As for the unsaved, they will not let you forget it, until they also forget it and can not imagine you anything other than you are. That day will come.
In the mean time, offer to pray for them and do not defend yourself. You have an advocate. Just walk in him

I don't think there should be a need to convince someone else about the change. Chances are, especially if life was way off the deep end before, it only takes spending a little time around a previous acquaintance for them to see a difference. And it might even be such a difference that the person says and asks, "Man, you are soooo different than when we were younger. What's up?" What a great intro into a testimony about how God/Christ has changed your life!

Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify you father which is in heaven. That's the real answer. You walk the walk as you talk the talk. But let your actions speak so loud that others need not hear a word you're saying. Your personal example will show all with whom you have contact that you are infact a changed individual and moving in a very special direction.

Your Life might be the only Bible they'll ever read! So let them see Jesus in you. Live your life in a way that shows that you're a Child of God - one who truly Loves the LORD. God is LOVE. Read the Bible (The Word of God) - there's lots of AMAZING stuff in there - you can begin with simple stuff like the book of JOHN in the New Testament. and if you are truly SAVED - you're not alone - the Holy spirit is in you and with you. He is your Helper and will teach you and guide you - reveal secrets/mysteries in the Word that you never knew before! He'll help you live your Christian Life in a way that is pleasing to God. You cant live a righteous life by your own strength/power. Pray as much as possible - this means - simply talking to God - having a conversation with Him - developing a relationship with Him - speaking to Him like He is your Best friend.
Surround yourself with other Believers who'll strengthen you. it's not easy going through this journey alone.also you need to share the Good News about Jesus' Love. It's BEAUTIFUL!! don't BE ashamed. Don't try to convince them - Just share your story (how you became a Christian) and share the love of Christ...and let God Convince them. If they doubt and reject you - don't worry about it!! Just keep them in prayer...and God will change their hearts!!

What do you mean convince ?
Are you a Christian or do you just want to con someone in to believing you are ?

Ridiculous. There is no such thing as being saved. This is nothing but a bunch of mythology written by men in the stonage before most people could even read or write and now you are going around perputating nosense....

Be sincere.
The apostle Paul had the same problem.'
Paul used to persecute Christians and could have been responsible for the stoning to death of Stephen. but after Jesus spoke to him from heaven, Paul changed and became the LEADING Christian. being given the privilege of writing 14 Bible books.

They will see a definite change in the way you speak and act. You have the love of Christ in you, and that love touches people you come in contact with, even those who knew you before you were saved. God bless you!!!

Why do you need to convince anyone? Is it the friend you are attempting to convince or yourself.
