How can I help my family?

[jesusfreak2722]

hey hey... ..ummm..I just wanted to know...How I could get the rest of my family in my house to become Christians because I am the only one in my house that has become a Christian. You see....I have tried so hard to talk some sense into them but so far....nothing has worked and I don't want them to go to Hell. I love them so much and I just want them to follow god's way not there way. you see they like to listen to Led Zepplin and metalica and Eminem and all those Satanic groups out there. So far i am the only one in my house that has become a CHristian. I just can't seem to trust them any more, because every thing just seems to just get me yelled at or ignored. I just don't feel like i belong in this family any more and the only people that are supporting me i s my grandma and aunt in Colorado(and i am in California)and my friends Susie and Audrey and there parents and there friends thta know me.If you could give me any advice that would really help. thank you so much and God Bless You all!!!! Good Bye for now

PRAY FOR THEM.Here's the problem - your family members aren't going to respect your opinions very much because you're their "little daughter" or "little sister".Even Jesus had this problem.When he returned to His home,He did not perform many miracles because of the lack of faith that He found among the people who knew Him.The people viewed Him just as "Joseph the carpenter's son".But it got even worse,His mother Mary who some people idolize as some sort of a goddess,did NOT assist Him in His ministry.In fact she actually tried to talk Him into quitting and returning home to the carpentry shop.So you're in real good company when your family ignores you.You'll just get discouraged if you keep trying to change them.It's best that you pray that God sends them a witness who will be able to convict them of their wrong behavior.In the meantime,keep yourself spiritually strong.STAY CLOSE TO JESUS.

thats it, like the two before me have said.
pray for them. your words dont always do anything.

1 pet 3.1
...if any obey not the word, they also may without the word be won, BY THE CONVERSATION of the wives.

there are some people who the word of God wont effect, there are people who you can talk to em all day, and it wont do anything for them.
but they can still be saved, WITHOUT THE WORD.
your conversation (or that word actually means way of life) can save them.

its not always what you say, its what you do.

go and pray for them, becuase there are things going on behind the scenes that you cant see, and prayer is the only thing that will change it.
ask the Lord to save your family, it isnt about how well you ask or what you say, he knows your heart and what you want from him, and if you believe and are patient to wait and keep praying no matter how long it takes, youll see miracles happen.
pray for them, and live the life as an example.

there are times when you need to be silent and not say anything, becuase your wasting the word when your talking and it aint doing anygood.
becuase it doesnt always change people.
pray for them. God can do what you cant do. but you do what you can, and hell do what you cant.

I agree pray for them. Don't try to cram God down their throat, don't tell them how they are living is wrong you'll only get the reaction your getting Best thing to do is live by example. They will notice the change in you and will want to know how you have such peace. My husband is seeing this at his work. They know he's a Christian but he doesn't talk about it he just lives it. Now some of them are starting to ask questions.
