You may be assking for what is now hidden but to be revealed in God’s good time.

I have already said that.

Witness is not always vocal, not always actively and openly missionary, not always publicly certifiable.

Our Lord is very capable of “seeing in secret and rewarding in secret”.

If He lives in our hearts, He is not always there to make us into heralds—sometimes we are there to silently serve.

Call it sweet and poetic if you please. It doesn’t concern me what assessment is made of my posts. They are offered in sincerity regardless of how they are received.

I have no doubt of your zeal or your sincerity, but let’s face it, MOST people, if they don’t know you’re a Christian, just think you’re a nice person, caring, friendly, etc., etc. when you do good things. You are a GOOD man or a GOOD lady. Sometimes you need to tell them just what Christ means to you.

And again I’ll say, that doesn’t help their loest neighbors, nor does it comply with 1 Peter 3:15, or 2 Corinthians 5:18-21, not other passages in the NT which intend for the Christiand to be salt and light.
