Meaning: WHY do we not share our faith and how is it that we just go to church once a week to get our ears tickled and then told to go and share. Why is it that we live hypocritical lives?
CAN WE BE NEUTRAL.......NO INDEED NOT!

Because when you are inside a building filled with like minded people, it is easy to speak freely about your convictions. However, when you have to wonder how your faith will be received by others, it is a little more daunting. Also, once outside the house of God there is much more temptation for the flesh to give in to.

i know it doesnt seem like it, but some people are genuine and do share their faith. i know i could do better- i see people hurting and sometimes its hard to work up the courage to go help them. we dont all "die" as soon as we exit church doors.
i'll admit, many people are "jumper-cable Christians" as Greg Steir says-who go to get their spiritual battery recharged every week. but lots of people do share. i've talked to several people about church, or youth group, or just God questions. its hard in high school, i'll admit that, but we share anyway, and draw strength from other Christians.
and we definately CAN'T be neutral. if you arent consciously working for God, then u are unconsciously working against Him.

I am not sure what kind of relationship you have with your church and with GOD but if this had been an actual question and not rhetorical I would of suggested drawing near to our Father in Heaven through Christ Jesus so you would be filled with the Spirit more then 2 hours a week.

True...religion should not be a "Sunday Morning Event"...it should be a lifestyle. Not trying to convert people, but just sharing your life with others and doing good with hopes of sharing your personal story of how GOD has changed you.

Maybe it's time you find another church. Best of luck to you.
