[Pheonix28]

For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching? And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”

Romans 10:13–15 ESV

How will they know if they have never heard? How will they hear if no one speaks?

Here and elsewhere I have read recently about how this place or that isn't the proper place to talk to others about Christ. Or that we should focus more on fellowship, or on showing Christ through our actions than telling others about Him.

Yes, our lives should be examples of God. No, we shouldn't let 'the way we live' be the only God they get. Go, share the Word with others. Share Christ. Let them know about the awesome God you've got. Let them join you.

Don't rely on other people to do the 'preaching'.

I know I posted a reply, but with the forum problems today we must have reverted to an earlier time.

We all have our own pulpit - we need to use it. Thanks, Phoenix
