I take it that you are one of those Christians who refer to themselves as " Bible believing Christians " , a term which has always puzzled me , because I fail to see how any Christian can be anything but a believer in the Bible .
So , where in the Bible does it say , and I quote your words , " We are COMMANDED to tell the gospel. Nothing further is required of us. " ?

You raise an interesting point here JCB (any relation to the dancing diggers?)
Many people claim to be Christians but they may be no more that church goers. A bible believing Christian is one who takes the bible as a whole as the word of God. Now there are not too many of those about. Even those well versed in scripture and can recite entire chapters may not believe it all. They always stick on some dark passage that is difficult to interpret. Even well known preachers succumb to this, but faith is about trust in God and if we accept what we do not yet understand then God will bless us. Not all prophesy has yet come into being so how could anybody interpret it accurately, and famous names have looked pretty silly for their predictions. There is something in man that wants to be first to understand and their predictions later make them look foolish.
