Questions and Answers: What would you say to someone who doesn't want to repent because he thinks life will become dull and boring? |
If you have not read Stories Versus Truth, you may want to read that before reading this.
You may hear someone say that they don't want to repent because they think life will become dull and boring. In these types of discussions, don't let Satan turn any discussion into a contest. Discuss without turning the other person into a loser or turning yourself into the winner. Answer:Ask them why they think that life would be dull or why do they think that life would be boring? What are they doing now that is so much better in their eyes? Draw them out. Let them explain their position fully. Listen. When you hear their reasons, do not attack or accuse them. Pray for a word from God that you can say to them. The reality is that Christian witness has more to do with the flow of the Holy Spirit than with raw human reasoning (the reasoning of the human mind without the Intelligence of the Creator flowing through the human mind) and persuasion. God will not guide your words in the wrong direction. Stay in the flow of the Anointing of the Holy Spirit. Do not depend on your own understanding. Let God speak through you. You will probably find that they think life will become dull and boring if they repent bacause they love darkness rather than light. They are lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God. Also, they may never have really gotten to know a Christian who walks in the Spirit and may have a misunderstanding of what walking in the Spirit would be.
