Friend who doesnt want to have a religion
-
The reason he gives is because he doesnt want to face rules and restrictions.
-
Then ask him join devil..
-
Then if you can't change his thinking, respect him.
-
well, religions are personal..
it's his choice isn't it?
best evangelisation? live your life right such that it is an inspiration of him to want to be something you are..
brow-beating him or bible-thumping isn't going to do anything except drive him away -
I try to do an analogy here.
If you dont think that yoga is good for you, you feel that you are wasting time doing it.
If you believe that Yoga is good for you, you dont see it as a waste of time.
unker and ben and silly, care to give your opinions for/on my analogy? -
yeah! im agnostic
life is good -
and the pt is?
what is the most sucessful method to convert him?
why he is so like that?
i dont feel good about it, what can i do?
what??? -
nope actually, because i know what will result in constant forceful preeching. Causing him to be severely against christianity.Originally posted by laurence82:and the pt is?

Have you been nagging at him? Or you made him think that life with a religion is boring?
You post this thread to ask for "answers" so as to convince him right?
We cannot give you the answers. The answer is with you. Have you been a good testimony of God? -
ts
so what u asking? or are just stating a sentence? -
i support your fren...
-
even if u believe Yoga is good for you, and you dun see as a waste of time doesn't mean you'll do it.Originally posted by davidche:I try to do an analogy here.

exercising and eating is good for me, and i wun be wasting time doing it, but i prefer to eat buffets, and surf sgforums. -
ah, let him be lah.
-
knn why are you so kpo?
if people don't want to do yoga, or want to do other forms of exercise, or whether they choose to exercise or not, why do you bother?
what business is it of yours if they choose yoga, or other forms of sport, or not do any exercise at all?
-
Do you not know that many closed their doors for Christainity because of forceful preeching and insultings of what they believe in????
Those so called people who cause these... Don't insult Christ and call yourself a Christain. -
Wah, it's getting hot in here.
TS feeling the flame. -
yup. Got an acquaintance who ask me out under a pretense of a business discussion. She ask if i really believe in buddha, monkey god, all that. She say all those are rubbish created by ancient people. She say there is only one true religion, Christianity.
She then ask me to go her church. Me say not free, she ask me go her cell group, meet her very good cell group leader. I was quite hot headed then and bickered with her.
Perhaps one truly believe there is only one religion and this is the one, there is no need to put down other religions. For every strong believer like her, there is an equally strong believer in another religion.
From then onwards I didn't have the best impression of Christians when they're talking abt their faith. -
My own opinion is that, well yes. You can share your faith with him. We've all been commissioned. But do it in a non-intrusive manner. And if he doesn't accept, back off. If you keep pressing him, conversely, he will grow to dislike Christianity. We have got to learn to respect the choices of people and their freewill i guess.
Beyond that, live a life worthy of Christ and be a beacon of light that shines brightly for him. And when people see that, they might be drawn to the faith. I have known some people who converted. After a few months, the family sees the changes in the person... and because of that, they converted.
It's not an easy decision to decide on what actually is evangelisation. Personally, my gf and i have had numerous heated arguments on this issue. But my advise remains. In everything you do, reflect Christ -
People have each of their way of thinking.Originally posted by davidche:The reason he gives is because he doesnt want to face rules and restrictions.
Religion is by own free will.
if people dun want to believe so be it.
U got problem with that??? -
