that you have forgotten what it was like to be a non-believer?
I ask in the thought it may give us reason to think how best to reach those we hope to reach.

Good point.
We must never forget the pit we were in.... It should cause us to love, have patience with others....

There is so much humanism taught in the schools that a whole generation has grown up Godless, unless they have a family member to take them to church to find the hope that Jesus gives. How you cut through all the bull they have been taught is difficult at best. There are some churches that offer witnessing classes, maybe you could go to one.

Christians have always had a calling to spread the Word. Christ's last command to his disciples, and to all of us, was to preach the Gospel to every nation and people. How that is to done is a far reaching question. Your life of faith demonstrates to others what a Christian's life should be like and is an example. Assuring people that Christ loves them and gave his life for them is something we all should strive to do.

It hasn't been that long for me...only a few years. I feel bad for those who haven't found Christ yet. I remember how I lived my life and made excuses for what I did.
Now, I see other people (including my family) doing the same things. I will never claim to be perfect, because I'm human, just like everyone else, but at least, as a Christian, I can TRY to act like Christ to the best of my ability.
My one prayer is that all who don't believe can have a revelation in their lives and realize that all they need is Christ!

Before I was a non-believe, I wouldn't even think about going on an online religion forum. I'm amazed now that so many non-believers are on here. I asked them why, but then my question got removed. I guess it's a touchy subject.
But yes I do remember what it was like before I was a non-believer. I was mostly aggrevated, depressed, sad, hyperactive, lonely, suicidal, well you get the idea.

I was a non-believer once. I didn't have a problem with it. Why would we need to change someone. If they don't want to believe in God, let them. Its not anyone's job to convert other people.
