“A Private Message for Christians” challenges modern believers to reevaluate what it truly means to live out their faith. It argues that many churches focus too heavily on baptisms and attendance numbers while neglecting the second part of the Great Commission: teaching obedience to Jesus' teachings. Christianity, according to the text, must be more than spiritual sentiment—it must be practical, logical, and visibly separate from worldly systems. The Bible is framed not just as a sacred book but as a handbook rooted in truth, capable of withstanding scientific and logical scrutiny.
Obedience requires Christians to fully separate from "Babylon," or the world’s culture. Living our faith means—turning the other cheek, giving generously, forgiving repeatedly, and more—is only possible as a church that is outside of the state. There needs to be a radical re-centering of Christian life around community, obedience, and theological soundness. Christianity loses its power and purpose if believers do not commit fully to building and being a new spiritual identity, a race that calls itself the church.
