My experience of renouncing atheism and turning to Christ is unique, as are the experiences of other atheists. Unfortunately, that’s not really a question that can be easily answered with a series of objective truths that are practical in their implementation. They are looking for practical things they should be saying and doing as they share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the unbelievers in their life. But, as true and reassuring as that answer is, that’s not the answer that people who are concerned for their atheist friends and family members want. All sinners who have ever turned in faith to Jesus have done so because the Spirit has replaced their heart of stone with a heart of flesh they have been given new life in Christ. The Sunday school (and correct) answer, of course, is the work of the Holy Spirit. What does cause an atheist to break free from atheism?

That’s a legitimate question derived from a worthy concern, and it deserves serious consideration. Because of my past and present (and glorious future), I am frequently asked by those who are praying for atheist friends and family members, “What caused you to stop being an atheist?” Trust me, that doesn’t encourage atheists to listen to whatever else is said by the Believer, including any gospel presentation that might follow.īy God’s grace, though, I am no longer an atheist, having repented of my sins and placed my faith in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ over 15 years ago.

That accusation was even thrown in my face several times by Christians when I was an atheist. “There is really no such thing as an atheist,” has smugly crossed the lips of more than few of my conversation partners over the years. Atheists are often viewed as cowards who don’t really believe what they say they believe it’s merely a position that’s adopted for the sake of being allowed to live a life freed from any moral authority, it’s assumed. Many Christians appear to hold to the mistaken belief that atheism is a cheap cop-out. Facebook Twitter Email Whatsapp Menu Whatsapp Google Reddit Digg Stumbleupon Linkedin Comment 0
