As cliche as it sounds, I heard Kirk Cameron preaching to a biker gang on tv the other night (I know, just.... I know lol).

He was saying that Imagine you are in court for stealing something. They have you on video, there is no way out, and the judge says you must pay the cost of the item plus court costs or go to jail. You are broke and the sum of the costs is way out of your range.

A man walks in from the back of the room and says to the court that he would like to give you his money to pay your debts so you don't have to go to jail if you will just love him and accept him.

The theft was your sin, the judgment was hell, and the savior is Jesus.

Putting it into context like that helped those biker guys a little. He didn't put them down or come out screaming how they were wrong and were going to hell (even if that is the truth), instead he attempted to speak a language that they could understand, with consequences they could understand. It was very cool.
