I believe we should share our faith too, but a huge part of how we share that is the verse right before your last Scripture quote.
James 2:17
Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
Actions speak louder than words. You can show your faith far better by living the Word, rather than giving it lip service.
Matthew 15:8-9
‘These people honour me with their lips, but their hearts are far from me.’ They worship Me in vain; they teach as doctrine the precepts of men.
Anyhow, I’ve said my piece on it, take it how you will. I hope you have a good evening!
As long as Christians should share their faith and create new disciples, that’s fine. Other commenters seemed to say that we shouldn’t, though. And your comment did come across as “look at me, I can meet your atheistic standard, too!”
