How To Lead a Roman Catholic to Christ

Fourth Key to Salvation: Only God Opens Hearts. Seeking to win a Roman Catholic is much like talking to an Orthodox Jew about the merits of boneless hams. They won't even hear you because of their culture.

Roman Catholicism is a culture and identity as much as it is a religion. The key is to get to God's Word and stay there. The only hope is to be a loving friend who has found some verses in the Bible and wants to share them. You can use their Bible if they have one as easily as your own.

• Use the Bible as the guide for your discussion
• Use the Bible to define truth
• Start with sin
• Point to Christ
• Explain the free gift
• Emphasize by grace alone
• Stick to God's Word
