It’s a difficult thing to grasp, but if you truly reflect on it as someone who claims to be a Christian—fully, wholeheartedly—you have to ask yourself one very serious question: what have you actually done for Yahweh?
We live in a time where many people call themselves Christians. They go to church every Sunday, sit through the service, sing a few songs, say a few prayers, and then go home to their regular lives. They go to work, talk with friends and coworkers, live out their days, and go through their weekly routine. But ask yourself this: in all of that, what have they done for Yahweh? What have they done to further His kingdom?
If you’re being honest, the answer for most is: nothing.
They may attend church, they may say grace before meals, and they may believe in God—but do they actually live for Him? Do they talk about the gospel with strangers? Do they ever share their testimony or post a video speaking about what God has done in their lives? Do they go out of their way to minister to someone who’s lost, hurting, or searching for truth?
Yeshua—Jesus—died a gruesome death on the cross so that we could be freed from sin. He paid the price none of us could pay. He gave His life so we could escape eternal separation from God, and yet most believers today can’t even take five minutes to share His message. Most won’t even lift their heads in public and say, “I follow Christ.”
This is hard to say, but it must be said: most Christians do nothing for Yahweh. They sit and wait for others to do the work. They believe, but they don’t act. They enjoy the benefits of salvation without ever carrying the burden of the gospel. And that’s a problem.
Now think about this: are you one of those Christians? If you say no, then prove it. Examine your life. When was the last time you spoke to someone about salvation? When was the last time you prayed with someone in need or handed a Bible to a person searching for meaning?
We often read those words in Scripture where people cry out, “Lord, Lord, didn’t we preach in Your name? Didn’t we cast out demons and do miracles?” And yet, Yeshua says to them, “I never knew you.” That’s chilling. It shows that it’s not about appearances or empty religious activity—it’s about obedience, surrender, and relationship. It’s about action.
We are called, as believers, to go out into the world and spread the gospel. That is not a request. It’s a command. And yet the majority of Christians ignore it. They say, “That’s not my calling,” or “That’s not my gift.” But spreading the truth of who God is, what Yeshua did, and how salvation is available to all is every Christian’s responsibility.
So how many are falling short? How many are neglecting this sacred duty?
And let’s be real about something else—many people are simply too embarrassed. That’s what it is. They don’t want to look strange. They don’t want to be labeled. They don’t want to be judged or mocked. They’re afraid that if they talk about Jesus, people will think they’re one of “those Christians.” You know, the ones people say are pushy or brainwashed or extreme.
But why does that matter?
Do we care more about the opinions of man than the commands of God? Are we so consumed with fitting in that we would rather keep silent than risk someone thinking we’re too religious?
Yeshua told us plainly that we would be hated for His name. He told us we would face persecution, that people would turn on us, mock us, reject us. And still, He called us to go anyway. He called us to carry our cross, to follow Him through ridicule, hardship, and even death if necessary.
So again—why are we so afraid?
How many of us, if put in a crowded room, could stand up and boldly say, “I am a Christian. I follow Yeshua. I am not ashamed of my Lord and Savior”? Not many. And that’s a problem, because that’s exactly the kind of courage we need in these times.
And let’s talk about priorities.
Where does Yahweh fall on your list? Is He at the top, or is He just a part of your week—a Sunday activity or something you squeeze in when convenient? Saying “God is first” means nothing if it isn’t lived out. He must be at the center of everything—your decisions, your work, your family, your finances, your future. Everything.
Everything you have belongs to Him. Your house, your car, your money, your talents—none of it is truly yours. It was given to you, and it can be taken just as easily. And yet we treat God like He should be grateful for the scraps we offer Him.
How many of us are willing to surrender everything to Him?
How many of us would give up our homes, our careers, our comforts—if He asked? How many would walk away from it all and follow Him into the unknown, just as the disciples did?
Not many. And that’s the reality we must face.
Would you lay your life down for Him, if it came to that? Would you endure persecution? Jail? Death?
Because that’s what it means to follow Christ with your whole heart. That’s what it means to love Yahweh with all your soul, mind, and strength.
And yet, most would quietly walk the other way if it ever became too real—too dangerous, too costly. That’s the tragedy.
But you have to decide. You have to look at your own reflection and ask: Am I really living for Yahweh, or am I just calling myself a Christian because it makes me feel safe?
This isn’t a game. This isn’t something we can casually engage in. This is life or death. Eternal life or eternal separation.
There are souls out there—millions of them—walking in darkness. And we have the light. We have the truth. We have the hope they’re searching for. And we’re sitting on it.
We cannot keep living as if someone else will do the work. We are the body of Christ. We are His hands, His feet, His voice. If we won’t speak up, who will?
Now is the time to wake up.
Now is the time to rise and declare with boldness: “I serve Yahweh. I live for Christ. I will not stay silent. I will go. I will speak. I will give my life if that’s what it takes.”
Because He gave His for us.
Let that sink in.
