text: how do i witness to people? especially responding to those who don't believe in god? i have a good friend who is pretty sure of his nonexistance, and there was an excellent oppurtunity and hopefully will be again tomorrow to talk about this sort of thing. i think i made him defensive today.   does anyone know any way to reach out without scaring them away? like a technique... i heard ask them what they believe happens after death, and after that, tell them about god... er... i don't know. please help!  please, i don't want to hear from you if you're simply responding with an anti-christian comment. (i do love you anyway though!) things you must know before you witness. and keep in your head. !. christ died for the person, not you. 2. god is love, he is not working in the spirit of fear, but peace and sound mind. (so no hell stuff) 3. your the walking testimony, how you talk, act, and re act, will be your light. 4. its, christ in you.  so keep your thoughts out of it. use the bible verses. john 3:16... let the bible be your voice. it has more power then your own.  5. pray, and be in prayer, listen, for gods voice in you telling you what to say, when the time is right. 6. god did not jump down your heart, you put him there in your time.  everyone has a time, not our time. 7. judgment belongs to god. and him alone.  8. if you don't know the answer, write it down, look it up in the bible. or call someone, but get back with the right answer. 9. don't mess it up or the blood is on your hands. 10.  smile, smile, smile,
