When we often share the Gospel with somebody in a group or just simply one-on-one, we cannot make someone a Christian we also cannot talk mean or talk about hell in the sense of scaring people into conversion. One time I remember we had a guy at our bible study, we have laid down the Gospel to him he accepted it, prayed etc but after a while we started to see that he started to fade away proving it with his actions and words he called himself an 'agnostic Cristian' which doesn't exsist because you either are a Christian or you not, there is no middle ground.
After a while it got worse he mocked me and what I believe he Mocked Christianity and God. This has proved that what happened on the day he accepted the Gospel was just mere emotion although w still love him and he still is our friend the seed has been planted. Maybe after a while or couple of years he will realise that what we have talked about was true and he will be saved. We can now pray and hope that these seeds one day will bring some fruit.
So no matter what happens when you share the Gospel don't excpect immidiate results if you preached with the spirit you have planted a seed and keep on praying and have faith that one day the seed will grow to a tree that brings forth lots of fruit sonetimes it takes time and patiance. I remember one time when I was at my friends baptism there was a guy for which people were praying for more that 15 years to be saved. Sometimes seeds take time to germinate.
Don't be discouraged, with blessings Damian ;)
