Just need to be honest here. 2 Cor. 6:14 talks about not being yoked with unbelievers. At best you need to be a good friend, but steer clear of ANY type of relationship :) |

I would caution you, like my friends below not to be unequally yoked. Got very messy for my sister, and I've seen it cause major wounds on each side. I would keep working. To some degree, I would repeat why my philosophy prof says, you can't argue someone into heaven. You can give every reason to believe, but at the end of the day they either will say yes or no, and the holy spirit works or gets spurned. Hope this helps. |

Try reading books on apologetics...The New Evidence by McDowell is a great one. I agree with the first guy though. We are definitely told not to be in such relationships. Not that we should avoid the people, but we become like the people that we are closest to. thank you all for your help will try all suggestions they were all great ones |

Check out Focus on the Family's True U! It uses science to prove the existence of God. Great curriculum with details and information, but the best thing about it is how it teaches how to think logically and rationally while examining the facts about the universe and life. After looking at how the universe began and how life began, the only logical explaination for the way things are is a Creator. |

Great question. Not to sound pious but Paul instructs that believers shouldn't be "yoked together" w nonbelievers. You are in it now and obviously care for her. If we could physically prove Gods existence there be a lot more believers and fewer atheists. Faith is at the heart of following God.the whole Christian idea is pretty absurd and takes a lot of faith to believe. Eph 2:8-9 says this faith is from God.keep praying for her but you may have to evaluate the future of the relationship. Just don't be rash or churchy about it though. |
