By example. The same as with everyone else. The Lord called us to be salt, light and leaven, not pushy assholes.

Pardon my French, of course...

I remember many years ago, newly saved, I was a “pushy ***”. Anyway, a friend of a friend who really cared about his lost friend asked us to help him get him saved. Several of us went over to this man’s Friend’s place with him. He wouldn’t listen and was going to leave. Some of us literally held him down and the gospel was passionately preached to him. The previously angry, stubborn, unrepentant man got up from the cot held hands with us and sincerely and sweetly asked Christ into life. He became saved. The LORD works in many ways. For this man it was better to be “hog tied” and preached The Gospel and repent than to spend eterity burning in the lake of fire.
