Agnostic lgbt interaction

While being interviewed, a college guy who "was raised in church, but left", discussed Faith. He had a religious background that was from a church-going Christian family. He's currently agnostic but "figuring it out" right now.  He had stayed away from church [and such convos with his parents] "for a lot of reasons", [note: he is visually presenting as one with an identity crisis, in lgbt]. He noted part of his reason was "less about a concern with sinning, and more just about not wanting to disappoint family and friends". But that doesnt mesh, as he could talk to his family and pastor about his struggles, sins, thoughts and get guidance. His unconcerned for sin is why he left. He wasnt saved, and loved his sins. He went on to say "after he left the church he realized he didnt care about his sins/sinning" and then tried to justify it by claiming thr Bible says "having doubts are good". He then disingenuously tied that to ...

My spouse is agnostic, how can I share on God?

Q: I don’t think my husband believes in God and idk if I should be offended, mad, or disappointed. [Well, just now he confirmed that “he believes in a god or rather he likes the idea of a god but he’s not sure.”]. A: It is a bit surprising you didn't have these convos while dating. But...   It means he is open, that's a great thing! He hasn't really let others brainwash him into atheism, so he is blank canvas.  It is a great opp to share Biblical truths and the Gospel ! 😊😊 Heres great resources for him. 1. Videos he can watch on God & Christianity (a real help).  2. Understanding the Gospel of Jesus. God bless

Do you feel you need to have a rebuttal when someone tries to challenge your beliefs?  I have someone very close to me in my life who no longer believes in Jesus or the Bible. They believe we are all God and one consciousness.  They just keep asking (attacking) me all these questions about the Bible and I never know how to respond. Part of me feels bad like I should know how to answer and the other part of me just knows they are not going to change their mind anyway so why waste my time in the conversation at all.  These are hard questions and I can understand where they are coming from, but is just super frustrating they way they think they "caught me" somehow for not having an answer. And the answers given are never enough.  I generally try to avoid this person right now, but they are very close to me and seek me out. It’s always hard questions like if God’s love is unconditional why did he flood the earth, why did he allow Elisha to kill 40 kids in his name, why i...
