I really want my friends to accept Christ, what can I do?

Allow them the space to make that choice without any interference from you, your church, or your socially conservative friends.

Your friends may (1) have already accepted him in a different fashion than yours or (2) be atheists, Buddhists, Wiccans, Jewish, Hindu, Muslim, Shinto, have native beliefs, or a number of other things.

Accept them even if they don’t practice your religion.
