Should I be bold with my faith?
2 Timothy 1:7-8
7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear: but of power, and of love, and of sobriety. 8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony of our Lord, nor of me his prisoner: but labour with the gospel, according to the power of God,
Romans 1:16-17
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel. For it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth, to the Jew first, and to the Greek. 17 For the justice of God is revealed therein, from faith unto faith, as it is written: The just man liveth by faith.
Hebrews 10:35-36
35 Do not therefore lose your confidence, which hath a great reward. 36 For patience is necessary for you; that, doing the will of God, you may receive the promise.
Catholic view (generated):
Yes, as a Catholic theologian, I believe it is important to be bold in sharing and living out your faith, embracing the call to evangelize and witness to the truth of Christ. However, it is also important to do so with humility and respect, recognizing that each person's journey of faith is unique and respecting the beliefs of others. Trust in the Holy Spirit to guide you in how and when to be bold in sharing your faith.
