APOLOGETICS: What right do we have to say what is right or wrong for anyone? Doesn't God say not to judge others?
True, God is the judge. And we have NO authority to decide what is right or wrong for anyone. But we do have authority, standing solely on the Word of God, to proclaim the truth of His Word (in fact, we are commanded to). And we let His Word be the final and absolute authority on what is right and wrong, in ALL matters, and in ALL lives.

THE GOSPEL CHANGES HOW WE PRAY FOR OTHERS
Because we know that any knowledge of the truth, or revelation of Christ, resulting in a transformed heart and a transformed life, comes from God, starts with God, and can only happen through the grace of God and work of the Holy Spirit, and because we know this is the ONLY thing that matters in life, we pray THAT for the people we love. Because we know Christ, and Christ alone, is better than anything this life has to offer, we pray that those we love would get Christ, NOT Christ AND _____. CHRIST. PERIOD. We pray they would know Christ, would WANT Christ, and would see such worth and treasure in Christ that any other dreams, goals, plans or pleasures in this world would seem worthless in light of Christ.
