Maybe we get points for sharing posts, quoting on other posts, giving notifications etc? Well you are well on your way for sure. But, I will get there some day. Thank you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being disabled and home-bound, 100% of my witnessing happens online. I try to put myself out there, posting a Bible verse in response to a post quoting from some famous thinker, or a political situation etc., to give a Biblical point of view on it. Virtually 100% of the non-believers who reply are clearly not seeking truth, but just looking to mock. Some are truly vile about it as well. We ourselves cannot save people, and cannot change their hearts. Only God can awaken someone's heart from spiritual death and make them soft-hearted and truly seek truth. I have learned to make my witness, and if it's clear the other person is not interested in listening or seeking but is only looking to mock, to not continually cast pearls before the swine. I politely end things before they can keep sinning by mocking God, letting them know I'm always willing to talk if they are truly interested, leaving them with a book recommendation or two, and then moving on. Finally I then pray for them, because only God can change and save. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they loved the Bible, they'd be believers, yes? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, as a believer, I just don't get why nonbelievers won't even give it a chance, check out the Bible and God first and then make up their minds. Some don't even want to check it out, they just blast the idea of the existence of God. Like there was an author that was an athiest and set out to prove there wasn't a God and he found God and has written a book all about that. His name is Lee Strobbel.

I would suggestyou watch Dr G Habermass you tube on the resurrection. He is an expert on this and on what Atheist historians accept as historically accuracte. There are parts of the new testament that atheist historian accept as true.  So you can make post like Bart Ehman accepts 1 Cor 15 as accurate and quote the source. Ask questions like What evidence do you have for that belief?  read this link about William lane Craig:- https://winteryknight.com/2021/10/22/why-do-so-many-atheist-historians-think-that-1-corinthians-15-is-reliable-history-4/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A waste of time for me. Of course you are going to see things that mock God and disrespect our Lord and Savior. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
