Yall think God is amused about this it's your fault, no it's your fault stuff? Even if he had only heard the word once, it's "Steven's fault". He has made his own choices. our job is to witness, not beat someone into submission. However he's not dead yet and the rapture hasn't happened (yeah I know) so where there is life there is still hope. I still think praying the best action plan though.

Good point Cindy. In the end I'm responsible for the decisions I make. Ya'll just relax. I'll take the rap. :-)

Yes, praying is a good strategy. But you also need to be ready to confront the false teachings with Scripture. And sometimes you may have to be confrontative about it.

In the book of John the Lord showed us a number of different witnessing techniques. The one He showed us with Nicodemus was one of confrontation. Nicodemus knew the Scriptures and should have known what Jesus was talking about so Jesus used a confrontational style with him.

I would say that most of the people on this thread, and this forum in general, could be considered in the class of Nicodemus and should know better. So a more confrontative style is called for.

Exactly.
