>>21295191>but he appears actively hostile.didnt even saint Paul actively persecute Christians before he became a Christian himself?
i know that most people are going to reject and hate God, i know that my friend might be one of them, but what if he is not? What if just like Paul, his conversion might take time?
>Indeed, you may have to part ways with him. you are right in this regard, because when i am with him i am enticed to commit evil and to become a friend of the world and i know that i must cut off one of my members if it causes me to sin but this also applies to people, i need to cut off the people in my life who harm my relationship with the Father.
>He escaped the perils of Satan and his deceit and saw the truthi hope i can show my friend how Satan decieves us, but even when i proved to him that the worldly principalities are ran by Satanists and that the media he consumes is evil, he initially agrees but then he still rejected the Gospel and the only solution which is to submit to and love Jesus Christ and to repent. He thinks he can take on the system itself rather than place faith in God.
all in all, i dont want to give up on him but i might have to
