A man witnessing to me....

Hi! I think Dove, & Teh have this guy pegged! Please be careful!! A "Christian" who doesn't feel it's important to belive the Bible probably doesn't think it's very important to follow the commands of God either. That can make for a dangerous person! I'll be praying for you, girl! Please take Dove's advice, and have someone walk you to your car when possible!

Not only does it sound as though he is racist,he does as Cat pointed out ,seem to have a motive in talking with you.I would consider him to be harrassing you and report him to your boss.

I told my boss about this guy and I think that maybe he talked to him for me....when this strange guy came in to return his movies he didn't say a word to me about his beliefs...Praise God...so I'm pretty sure that my boss has put his foot down....I work at a very small store kind of a mom and pop stop...and I am the only employee except for boss and his wife...so we are pretty close knit here.

I pray that this fellow will leave me alone...and I am still parking in front of the store....I will not park behind the empty building across the street anymore...

Love and BLessings

Anyway, he has lately been telling me his views on the bible. I am not interested in his views but I cannot find the right words to make him understand that...

...if I say I am not interested then he says you are just uneducated on what the bible really says. I try not to argue with him as I am very new.Lets just say I am still on the milk.

In my opinion, it sounds like this man needs to hear from you that you are "not interested," for the moment at least.

Try being assertive, you are not being "nasty" or mean if you tell someone you are "not interested."

Please don't read me wrong here Okay?

This man does not have the problem.

Give yourself permission to say;

"I am not interested but thank you for your concern for me..."

It's not an easy thing to do. Most ppl find it difficult to say no.

sometimes it is a fear born out of the concern of being rejected or the fear of hurting another's feelings?

Sounds to me you are a really nice person, perhaps a little too nice? ( is that possible! )

If he get's upset, that is his issue to deal with, not yours.

He sounds like he comes from a "truth sect," it is possible he believes he is trying to "save you" with his version of "truth."

He might believe it is only his church that has the whole truth.

He sounds like he is genuinely trying to "save you," so let him know you appreciate his concerns and that you are "not interested" and if he insists, then you keep on insisting
