The issue of faith has been dubbed a personal issue and as a result this has privatized it.. Its an area that is frowned at when its being shared in a public space. It has actually become a taboo. These days saying a swear word has become more tolerable than expressing allegiance to Jesus Christ publicly.
The issue of our faith in Jesus Christ is not an isolated controversial issue but it is our very lifestyle as christians , it is who we are. It is our culture , it is how we express ourselves as human beings in the known world. It is in the core of my faith that my life and my message must affect the person next to me. Sharing of our faith is one of the core values of our faith. Its the value for the spreading of the fame and glory of our Lord and King Jesus Christ.
Therefore the privatization of faith is forcing us to compromise the core mission of our faith. We cannot tolerate this because it prevents us to be who we really are i.e Christians. Christians must express their faith to others even if those people have beliefs of their own.
