Hey Simcha,
Thanks for your comments. I don't have any intention of standing on street corners proclaiming things, can't quite imagine myself doing that! I don't want to force what I believe onto other people either. I respect other religions and belief's. My boyfriend has a different religion and its not an issue. I guess if we got married we'd have to have two weddings though ! It does say in the Bible that it is the work of Christians to spread the word. If i started preaching to my friends I think I'd drive them away!
>" There are ways of "spreading the Word." I know a lot about Christianity. You may try to "spread the Word" through inner transformation leading to outward acts of kindness. When people see how you have been transformed they might actually ask you what your secret is. Then you have the obligation to tell them about the spiritual path you have found. This might be a better way than outright confrontation on the street. In my world, actions speak louder than words"
I really like this idea !
Thanks,
Take care Janejj
