CHRISTIANS: Can you win someone to Christ by love alone? And after you vote please explain your answer - preferably using Bible citations.

"God’s self-revelation is disguised under the crucifixion and death of Jesus, the obedient Son. Through the encounter with divine love revealed as beauty, we are led back to truth and goodness because we are led into the encounter with the One who is True and Good. Through the beauty of divine revelation, we discover a love that is believable."

"Jesus did not say that people will know the good news of the gospel through our love, but that through our love they would know that we are followers of Jesus. Good works show whom we follow, not what we believe."
-- Andy Poland, "The Cross"; Fall/Winter 2009, p.1

The unfortunate truth is that some people will never be won over no matter how benevolent you may be toward them. Some might, but they are very few and far between through benevolence alone.

In any case, if it does happen, recognize that God impressed it upon their heart to come to Christ.

Christians can be an example but it's not what WE do, it's what GOD does to that person. For a person to change they must change from the inside, their heart must be softened. Only God can do that.
BTW I meant to go for strongly disagree there!! OOPS!
