Apparently, one of my best friends has just admitted that she has been hiding the fact for a while that she does not believe in God. However, she was one of the most devout Christians I've ever known and in my young walk with Christ, I have always looked up to her cuz she always questioned what was being said in the Bible. I have advised her to be honest with her friends about her beliefs but I also want to help bring her back to the Light. If anyone has any CONSTRUCTIVE criticism, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, and God Bless.

Well, maybe you could ask her what changed her mind about religion... her reasons might be because of doubt or thinking the Bible didn't make sense or something like that...and if you can answer her doubts or questions with answers that will turn her back to her faith, great, and if you don't quite know the answers, or just don't know how to word it or explain it in the way it should be in order for her to understand, then ask your pastor, or someone else who is extremely strong and knowledgable in their faith that can help you to explain it so that she'll actually think about and take into consideration what you said... Well, I hope I was some help, even if it wasn't much...I'm not sure exactly what would work best for you and your friend, after all, I'm not in the situation and I don't personally know your friend, so this advice might not work at all. I'm not sure, but I hope that you can figure out something. I'll pray for your friend, and I'll pray that you or someone else will find a way to lead her back to the Light. God Bless, ~  BrItT  ~

___Either your story doesn't add up... or you're a complete idiot. Or both. Your friends should be the one's showing you the light of not being such an idiot.
