I'd like some opinions on a situation that I'm going to be put into soon.
One of my best friends since high school is going to be getting married this summer. He's an unbeliever and has never been married before. The problem is that the woman that he's going to marry has been married previously. I got word the other day from another friend of mine that my friend that is getting married will soon be asking me to be in the wedding.
Do you think that I should participate? If I don't, I'm sure that he will really be hurt and will not understand my objections since he is not a believer. I've witnessed to him before and even bought him his first Bible but he was only interested for about a month. He's never gone to church and comes from a home that is not christian. I'm afraid that if I tell him that I won't be in the wedding, he'll be too hurt and he'll distance himself from me. Then how do I witness?
I've gone through this numerous times in my head but would like some more insight.
