How to Evangelize Those Who Are Spiritual But Not Christian

Apr27
2012
Written by Warner Smith

Do you know someone who believes in God and angels but does not really believe that Jesus Christ is the only way to God.  They welcome dialogue about religion because they consider themselves to be very spiritual.  They insist, however, that all such conversations tolerate all religious ideas equally, since in their mind no one can be certain about religious truth.

Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6

We need to ask God the Holy Spirit to convict these individuals of God’s righteousness and of their own sinfulness.  We need to ask God to give us each the boldness to challenge their false presuppositions concerning the truth claims of false religions.  If we will live consistent Christian lives in front of them and lovingly challenge their misinterpretations concerning Jesus’ own claims about Himself we will have the opportunity to share our faith in Christ.

7 But I tell you the truth: It is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away, the Counselor will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you. 8 When he comes, he will convict the world of guilt in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment: John 16:7–8

Pray that those who are lost will meet Christian friends who will share with them the truth about Jesus. If a lost person meets you today will they have made such a friend?
