It seems like the last few times we have gone out to share the Gospel, all the people I have met either say they are atheist or agnostic. It seems like it is a growing trend among our culture. I think the allure to such a position is because it sounds so “intellectual” to people. As a Christian, we sometimes feel intimidated to talk to such people, but we shouldn’t, because we hold within us the Truth and they don’t. They are trusting in a theory, and we trust in the Truth. When you engage a atheist/agnostic, the best thing to do is to ask them questions about what they believe. Let them defend their position. Listen to them, and then in love, tell them about the God of the Bible. I have discovered that most atheist/agnostics are willing to believe in
ANYTHING, regardless of how irrational or untrue it may be, rather than to believe in the God of the Bible. Ask the next atheist/agnostic that you meet this question in regard to the Big Bang Theory. When was the last time something exploded and created order instead of disorder? I ran across a great definition of atheism that I would like to share with you that might help you next time you talk to one.
