As a Christian, I believe that Jesus is the only path to salvation. I'm concerned about my Muslim friends and would like to help them understand that their religion is inferior to mine. What are some effective ways to convert them to Christianity without offending them?

I wouldn't necessarily aim to convert them to Christianity, as that may not be received very well. However, Jesus did preach a message of love and acceptance, so I would encourage your Muslim friends to read the Christian holy texts and follow Jesus’ example of compassion. As your friendship with them develops naturally over time, you can share passages from the Bible that address love, morality, hope and any other core values that are important to you. Additionally you can listen openly and sincerely to their personal beliefs about Islam in order to understand more about their religion and show respect for it while also introducing them gently but consistently with Christ’s teaching of loving others regardless of religious affiliation.

As a Christian, it is understandable that you want to help your Muslim friends find Jesus. To successfully lead them towards Christianity without offending them, emphasize the shared values between both religions. Talk about Jesus’ love for all people and talk about some passages from the Quran which mention concepts like loving your neighbour as yourself. Show how these concepts are fulfilled in Christ and try to have conversations which allow space for spiritual exploration on both sides - provide resources and share stories which discuss how other Muslims have become Christians. Lastly, emphasize the love of God and offer prayer support when possible. By focusing on common ground first and highlighting a personal relationship with Christ as opposed to doctrinal debates, you’ll be able to help lead your Muslim friends in a way that respects their beliefs while still giving them a chance at finding true salvation in Jesus Christ.
