    I would like to say being a Christian has never nor will EVER be about being a good person. That is th point... they can't be good enough. No one can. It is about being forgiven by God because of the work of Jesus. Just saying

    Pray pray and pray. At lest the child is becoming curious. I suggest you open the bible and shoe some verses that make a real impact on your life. I would read John 14 to them and tell them to put it to the test.

    Metaphorically speaking, if you preach the message and you are told that the writers of the scriptures are schizophrenic, dust off the dirt from your sandals when you leave their village.

    You have to be sensitive to who's open to the gospel and who's not... simply digging in and continuously trying to come back with more information and more argument most of the time gets you nowhere and sometimes even incites people to anger... don't be that guy. Save your words and the message for those who want to hear it.
