JebStuart,
Yes and no.to your assertion.

For some, their faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is a new Life that they are constrained to and asked as a demonstration of their saving faith in His Grace to speak of openly by Christ and the scriptures.

Don't know much about the other religions ....but a faith in Christ as one's Savior and Lord is such that folks so saved in truth can hardly keep silent-private IF they are walking in His Spirit.
This Life in Christ is no "religion"... but a living faith and way of life..

And so we speak, listen, fellowship, testify, exhort, encourage others to investigate this New Life we have received in faith which is demonstrated in about all we do.

I believe that Jesus Christ is God's only begotten Son.
