Don't get bogged down by your friends or life in general. Just keep your eye on the prize. Then they will see the change in your life, and cannot deny God's presence in your life. I have come to learn that living a good sermon will always be more effective than debating.
The salvation of your brother and your friend is not your responsibility. That is between them and Jesus. All that is required of you is to present the truth. If they do not accept Jesus, that is not your problem. It is OK to be distressed that they are destined for hell if they don't accept Jesus, but do not let it become your responsibility.
thanks robert but i can't help but feel responsble for them. i feel that it is my mission to save them and i feel that i will let them down and God down if i don't try my best to get them. it is a burden and it is mine to bear but i do appreciate the support. even pilgrim shared his load with a fellow traveler on the path to zion.
It is your mission to "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation," not to save all creation. Jesus has already saved those who will accept Him. It is not your burden to bear, but it was that of Jesus, and he bore it on the cross. You should not be trying to "get them," but rather you should be trying to present the word of God in a factual and powerful way. But it is good that you are trying your best. :)
