Sorry about submitting more than one response, but this is genuinely hard and depressing.
My best friend is...a Muslim.
*Shocked gasps in the audience*
Yeah, I know...a Christian and a Muslim hanging out. How unusual.
Anyway, another really difficult thing for me is accepting the most hideous fate of my dear best friend. We were seperated from each other (in a physical way. I moved) more than a year ago. We still connect with each other via WhatsApp and still hang out occasionally during the holiday. She had it all. She is fun, loving, and a very rare female gamer. I really like her.
That's why I was flabbergasted when I found out that all people who weren't Christians were going straight to hell. That means I will make it out with my soul still intact, but she won't. Her destiny is to rot in hell, screaming in agony for eternity...and there was very little I could do about it.
Why?
Well, you see, I am not an evangelist. I am not good at evangelism at all. Also, if I tried to convince her, that could end VERY badly. She could be rejected by her family. She could even be charged of apostasy. The consequences are near endless. I don't want to ruin her life in the process, but I don't know how not to.
All I can do is enjoy the relatively sparse days we have together until her inevitable brutal end...sorry about the long post, but I just want to get that out there.

Mercifully, we are not called upon to decide if people are bound for heaven or hell, and we are not called upon to present the gospel perfectly; we are merely called to witness, the rest is in God's hands.
