TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU!
Titus 3:9 But avoid foolish controversies and genealogies and strife and disputes about the Law, for they are unprofitable and worthless.

Actions do speak louder than words. Remember this, What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? - Romans 8:31. The Lord daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah. - Psalm 68:19. Peace and God Bless.

"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." - John 13:34,35
"What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead". - James 2:14-17

Jesus did not sent his disciples out to try and save any one. God send his only begotten Son, down to save the whole world, by dieing pay the price of sin. All we have to do is have faith, repent, and believe in Jesus Christ, that He died for us.
Jesus told His disciples to go out in to all nations, and preach the gospel (good news), to all the people, about the Kingdom of God. Every one is responsible for there own selves.
More people are being reached every day, with radio, TV, and new technology.

We are certainly called to shine for Jesus, to be a witness of His resurrection power, to share with others the good news, to get out of our comfort zone and extend ourselves to others, to show love, to show mercy, to be generous and gracious to others, to not be ashamed of the gospel, etc.
We need to led by the Spirit how to show forth the love of Christ!
If that involves talking, preaching on a street corner, arguing like Paul on Mars Hill (book of Acts), standing on a highway with a scripture verse painted on a sign, then we should do it with all our hearts.....
But, yes, we must avoid foolish and senseless arguing....
god bless

When we will be able to agree between ourselves, we will be able to reach more and more people, but as it seems Christians don't want to accept even brothers. Love must be not only in words, but in deeds also.

For everything there is a season, no?
BTW - talking can be love in action too you know - not all conversations have to be arguments!

I agree. I try to preach constantly, using words when necessary. I hope my life speaks for itself.
