Is it enough just to be content with yourself and worry not even about those around you? Its all about you then right?

Many spoke of just taking. Jesus as you state didn't just walk around talking, he did allot of work washing others and showing them the path of light that existed from His Lord Allah SWT All Mighty God he is one and never was he ever anything but that Absolute.
Its your words we spoke about before, and not your actions. When will you finally pick up something and start working for the betterment of everyone other than yourself. You can easily see the ones that do nothing but talk, when you need them they walk away like they never hurd you. What a shame!

They are not doing what you are claiming and what he claimed these days. Did you ever ask yourself why?

Nancy found what she needs and just decides to keep on talking instead of actually doing something about it without any action. And she calls herself a believer? What a shame!

No, its not enough just to be content with yourself and not worry about those around you. Jesus in Scripture commands us to preach the Gospel to all nations and make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:16-20). He also commands us to love our neighbor and to help those who are less fortunate than us "As you treat these, so you have treated Me".
There are so many references to this, it's hard to miss if you've actually read the Bible and studied Christian theology.

I am content. I have chosen my own path and I feel no need to encourage people to believe in the same God I do!
The only Idea that I think I am right about and tend to "hit people over the head with" is:
It doesn't matter what anyone believes, Tolerance for other peoples views is more important than to Judge others because they don't believe as you do! The only person you can control is yourself! The only persons actions you are responsible for is your own!
I know that makes me "the pot calling the kettle black" but I am only human!
BLESSINGS!

If you mean you have to proselytize, well there are many ways to do it and sometimes words don't work very well, insults work even less, maybe the behavior is what talks most. If you have truly found in your heart what you were looking for your behavior will speak much more than what comes out of your mouth.

I have already found my God. Salvation is not about me it is about God's love. My part now is to tell the good news of salvation to everyone whenever I can so that all who hear and believe can be added to God's kingdom. I know and experience the love of God every day and I want to pass the message on to others so they can experience the joy for themselves.

Love your neighbor as yourself. This is how God reveals Himself, i.e. through our trying to obey His command to love our neighbors because where love is, there God is also.

I am a pagan Witch, we don't feel the need to try to make others do what we do or think what we think.
