In my hand is a 32 page booklet put out by a wonderful godly ministry, that I know very well asking and answering this qquestion.May I share my thoughts and I NEVER have an argument.
1. We are not to share our faith, we are to share the GOSPEL.. the good news. If you really catch this and believe it, it will transform your witnessing. NEVER talk about your faith, your beliefs, your doctrine, your particular church etc.
2. Share the GOSPEL, We are to preach the GOSPEL to every person, possible. This is what I share and I NEVER get into arguments. ". "God loves you and sent His Son, the Lord Jesus to suffer and die for our sins, paid our debt in full, was buried, rose again and was seen by hundreds of people.
3. Be sure all of our sins are confessed and forsaken (Ps. 51:2-4 and 13) or you will never lead people to Christ.
4. Be sure you are yielded to and depending on the Holy Spirit to do the convicting and convincing of the one to whom you are sharing the gospel. He must, you can't.
5. REMEMBER, "the natural man receives not the things of God, neither can he know them." 1 Cor. 2::14. God has to open their eyes. You do not talk people not being saved.
6. Tell them how "the Lord Jesus suffered and died for our sins" several times for them to catch it.
7. Let them know you do not discuss different doctrines, you just want to tell them the good news, How Jesus suffered and died for our sins. Paid our debt in full rose again and was seen by hundreds of people. If they want to argue, I just tell them, "I am sorry but I do not argue with people" and walk away. "shake the dust off your feet."
This is brief but I have found it works.
