You cannot make anyone believe the truth, because the LORD gave them freewill while they’re on earth that allows them to believe a lie if they want. Each person must get to a point where they finally regard the Holy Spirits conviction of sin, righteousness, and judgment more than they do satan’s deceit that keeps them living in bondage to sin while thinking that they will never be judged for it at the end of their days on earth and may on earth receive negative consequence for engaging in it.
In order to know the truth and have faith in God’s plan they must hunger and thirst for righteousness. Until they do, they'll make up reasons to dispute and ridicule the truth and your witness. This should not stop you from obeying His commands by looking for opportunities to bring others to a deeper relationship with God. Jesus told you to expect worldly people’s ridicule and persecution as you communicate the gospel and live by His principles! Some people will not believe some or all of God’s lifestyle and financial principles. So, the best avenue you can take with these people is to plant and water the gospel seed given to them when you’re able but don’t argue with them.
If given greater room, briefly explain your biblical basis for good stewardship and be ready to identify scriptural verses and stories to support what you say. Also, be able to give your testimony outlining how biblical financial principles have allowed you to become a good steward of the possessions God entrust to you and direct them to other people and/or resources who can shed more light on the subject when they want such knowledge. Finally, continue to pray fervently that the planted and watered seed will soon take root and grow to produce fruit pleasing to God.
Please pray for this ministry and email any questions. May God bless you richly as you follow His plan!!!
