First - Never attack the Backslidder.

He or she knows who they are and what they are doing.  The ones who will not admit their condition, are the ones who have been attacked and have reverted to defending their position.

A good method to bring the Backslidden out into the open is to inquire about how sure they are about being saved.

For instance, we ask, "Are you 50 or 75 or 100% sure that you are born again?"  Most Backslidders have lost the victory of their salvation and are no longer sure of it.  If they are still sure of their eternal destination, many in this category will say, "I know I am saved, but right now I am ...".  They all finish a little different, but every finish can be summed in the word, "Backslidden".

Second - Be patient.

You will get to the problem, the real problem, soon enough.

Third - Those who have lost assurance.

When asked, "Are you 50 or 75 or 100% sure that you are born again?" and they reply with any number lower that 100, use the following link. 100% Assurance.

This tool helps you discover exactly where the person is, spiritually.  We have many churches using this in every kind of soul winning situation.

Fourth - Those who have assurance
but know they are on the wrong track.

They have already said, in so many words, "I am Backslidden".  Use the following tract to help them out. Backslidden Tract.
