So, I have been trying to talk to a friend about Christ. I truly believe that if someone genuinely seeks God with an open mind and heart, God will make himself known to that person. My friend said “imagine a Muslim or a Hindu trying to push their religion on you, how would you react.” If I’m being honest, I’d probably be amused, skeptical, combative, annoyed.

You already said it yourself.

“If someone genuinely seeks God with an open mind and heart, God will make himself known..”

THEY have to be open to it. If they’re open, go ahead and provide them with information. If they’re not, don’t force the issue.

God moves in His own way, in His own time.

And I most definitely would not have an open mind and heart towards their claims about Islam and Hinduism. This made me start thinking about how we as Christians can confidently say that Christianity is truth when there are so many other religions. Idk, does this cause anyone else to have doubts?

The great commission didn’t have a caveat of “share the gospel if they’re open to it”. God will open their eyes if it’s plan. Sharing is obedience to God, not to be liked

As far as doubts, I’d encourage you to study pragmatics

First thing to remember, YOU cant convince or change anyone. That’s God’s doing. If you’re going into convos to push your faith on them or think you can convince them with enough facts, I’m here to be real with you. Check your heart first. Is your intention just to share the gospel or something else?

You need to be open minded as well as in to listen. Too many christians go in with the mindset of wanting to share/prove their point but completely close off to what the other person has to say. In order to share the gospel, you need to be able to listen to them as well. Be quick to listen, slow to speak.

We’ve been attending a church for about 6 months now and trying to decide if it’s our church home. The only reason I’m hesitant is because people don’t seem to engage with us as much as I expected.
