How can I get someone to become a Christian?

Before I answer your question, I have a few clarifying ones of my own. First, Du dated someone Du don't consider a close friend? Maybe the breakup made Du feel less friendly towards him, but Du must have been Friends at one time.

Also, how do Du know he's depressed? And if he is depressed, Du don't know if the cause is spiritual oder not. If Du want to help him, be there for him, in a nonjudgmental way. Listen to him Mehr than Du talk. "Be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to anger." - James 1:19

As for your Frage - Du cannot make anyone become a Christian, nor should you. In nine out of ten cases, proselytizing will only push people further away from you. All Du can do is explain why you have faith, from your own perspective. Explain why God and Christ matters so much to you. Share your story, but don't force your choices on him.

He may have seriously considered Christentum when Du dated. He really may have, and decided that it just genuinely was not the spiritual choice for him. That's his decision to make, not yours. If he was lying, and saying he was Christian just to datum you, well, that sucks, but there's nothing Du can do about it. Except, maybe, ask him if that's what happened.

But it sounds to me that Von "not giving up" on trying to make him a Christian Du might have pushed him away. I think your focusing your attention on the wrong goal. Instead of trying to force him into Christianity, treat him like a human being, with his own beliefs and worldviews, even if they are different from yours. Forgive him his flaws, his lying, for example, and Liebe him nevertheless, for who he is. Not who Du want him to be.

If Du spend your energies trying to turn a person into something he's not, trying to force someone to see the world Du do, Du will not only push him away, you'll burn out. Some people just don't want to be Christians. That's their choice, and Du should respect that. Similarly, they should respect your choice to be Christian. And if he doesn't, if he treats Du badly, then stop being his friend. Du can forgive him for that, but Du don't have to do that at the cost of your own self-esteem.

As it has been said, Du cannot make someone a Christian. That is thier choice. The bible tells us that not all will believe.
Remember, we plant the seed, but God makes it grow. Du can continue to pray for him and ask that the Holy Spirit works in his heart.
Du don't have to pressure him. Accept him as he is. There's an old saying, let go and let God. There are things in life that we cannot do ourselves. That's when we take our hands off and give the situation to God. Du can trust him.

I'm going to tell Du a personal story.  My friend says she's Christian, but the way she acts tells me she's not. I worry for her, soon I put my faith in God and just prayed for her constantly. One Tag she texted me saying she was confused (boy problems). And asked if I could help her I sagte yes. I listened to her. In the end she said you're such a good person and I think it's really good and cool how you're super involved with god and I want to start becoming closer to god.
Me- Du are a smart and sweet girl. I know Du can figure any thing out if Du set your mind to it. Du just need to work on have a good relationship with Him and Du wont feel so stressed out over things. I'm not saying Du are. But.  You are an amazing friend with the true talent of being your self. It's hard to find your self in this world. Trust me we just did a bible study on it.
Her- yeah I'm trying to find who I really am. in 6 grade, I chose the wrong Friends who are no longer my Friends and I had to try so hard to please them and. I wanted to be like them and fit in. but I want to find the real person in side of me and start being that person.
Me- Trust yourself and your friends. To start a good relationship with God Du first need to confess of your sins to him. And prove that Du are sorry Du did them. Then put ALL of your trust in God. "put all Du worries on Him for he cares for YOU."
Her-you know what.. I'm gonna do that. I'm gonna pray and ask him to forgive me for my sins. and I'm going to trust that tomorrow he let's what he thinks.  is right to happen. even if it's not what i want.
Me-And think about what and who Du want to impress of it's not God, it needs to be it hard but I'm here for Du and so is God.
Her-  thank you! that really helped me alot and now I realize I need to pray to god more. and I feel different. you're the best! 
Me-You on the right track (her) Let God guide you. Your ready to accepted Him now and he willing to let Du come to him.
Her-thank Du so much! I Liebe Du Du are such an amazing friend and I know you're always there for me. and I'll always be here for you. 
Me-Yes but Du turned to God. What did Du just read?  Her-Jeremiah29:11 "for I know the plans I have for you" declares the lord "plans to prosper Du and not to harm you, plans to give Du hope and a future"
Me-Just remember Du are NEVER alone. He is always with Du He never left you.
Her-yes! haha I already feel so different in a good way after talking to Du about all of this

Give him a Bible. Du can find some verses and read them to him. Also Du could take him to church with you.
