I had a girlfriend; she was not a believer. I know in the Bible it is recommended not to be yoked to non-believers. But I refused, despite every cell in my body telling me not to. I chose to be with her and decided to preach the gospel and convert her. I didn't know you can't change anybody unless the Holy Spirit changes them directly, probably because of the seed you planted. The problem with us was because I believe in Jesus, my walk of life and every decision I make in life is dependent on Christ's principles. I could see why it is not recommended in the first place. I understood what yoke meant. Fast forward, after 3 years of unimaginable things we have been through, she told me she couldn't buy this concept of Jesus anymore. That was when we ended. I still pray for her. I wish I could have been a little more obedient and listened to God's word to prevent my heartache.
@@egooderese Hey brother, I’m blessed by your willingness and strength. I’m also blessed by your message because my story was similar. My boyfriend lead me to Christ. The only difference I see was He didn’t have the intention of converting but decided to only show me the love of Christ. As believers we must have the discernment to discern where someone is on the journey of being an atheist. Some are more warmer than others. While others are more cold. What I’m learning is: when it comes to sharing the gospel with an atheist is to simply be yourself . Be the light. You don’t have to shove the gospel down their throats or intend to convert them. Typically, they will find that offensive. Focus on what Jesus would do. We must reach the unbelievers somehow. I was lead back to Christ because my boyfriend simply showed the Love of Christ , was patience and compassionate. But of course don’t join together with someone God did not say to be with because you can put your faith on the line. Nevertheless, obey God in all circumstances and He will use you in a mighty way to do just that: deliver and reconcile His people through you.
