"It's the goodness of God that leads men unto repentance"
I think sometimes we have to wrong idea when we try to bring people to Christ.
The Bible says it's because of God's GOODNESS that men want to repent and turn from their own ways.
Not through our judging,
not through us passing condemnation
not through our fingerpointing.
but through showing LOVE.
- Because it's when the world sees that God is different than the rest, that he accepts them the way they are, all of a sudden he becomes a safe place that they can run to.
Romans 5:8 says that
"While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us."
He loved us inspite of our downfalls and shortcomings.
Until we learn to see people the way Christ sees them, we will never be fully effective.
It's not our job to change people- that's the Holy Ghost's job.
