Should I stop being friends with my atheist friend?

[coffeelover24]

I feel relieved. Part of me (flesh) is unhappy because of what I've done, but the other part (spirit) is relieved. Thank you all for your prayers and advice. I wish I could respond to you all, but either way, it was very much appreciated.

I know this is a SUPER old thread, so no one may even respond to this. but this literally relates to what I was just going through sooo much. I just ended my friendship with a guy who wasn't a believer and you basically described exactly what I was going through. I shared the gospel with him, and he told me if I brought up God he wouldn't be my friend anymore. I told him I wouldn't agree to stop bringing up God, and he and I are no longer friends. I am relieved, though. I honestly feel way more free and I hope he leaves me alone! I kinda felt like satan was holding me captive and keeping me in that friendship. Now I know I made the right decision! plus, I think this guy I was friends with may very well be possessed or oppressed.

Thank you for sharing your experience too. It is good to know you have broken free from this friendship which challenged your relationship with the Lord.
Praise the Lord!

Commit this guy to the Lord and leave him in the Lord's hands as you move on, he has heard the gospel and seeds have been sown.
You have shared the most important message that he ever needs to hear.

May the Lord richly bless you as you move on, seeking His will in all things

He lead them forth by the right way
