Ok, so I'm in a delimma and not so sure what to do... I'm a new Christian and trying to help my boyfriend come to see God. We often get on the subject and I don't know how to help him. He wants help, he says so, but I don't know how... any advice? what should he know? THANKS!!! :confused:
Where is he stuck at? What is it that holds him back?

Please don't take this the wrong way, but since you are a young Christian. You need to get him to someone who can answer whatever his questions are, and give him scriptural evidence, be a part of the witnessing process. But you definitely need to get him to your youth minister, pastor, elder, or deacon. I will be praying for him and you.

I went through a similar thing with my first husband. I used to leave the bible, leaflets and books lying about opened. The pastor used to come round now and again and chat to him and I prayed about it and all of a sudden one day he volunteered to say grace before our dinner. Tears came to my eyes. Just prayer, patience and pastors together with your wonderful witness. Leave the rest to God.

Thank you all for your help!! I've tried getting him to talk to my youth pastor ( who is WAY cool and on fire) but he won't go... his main thing would be that a lot of bad things have happened to him and he has done a lot of bad things, he doesn't get why God would let so many bad things happen to him and why and how God can forgive him when he doesn't know how to forgive all the people that have hurt him! Thanks

The word 'blame' is coming through very strongly from the comments you have made about your fellow. Do you think he feels he has any responsibility for his actions?
