21 Tips for Hiding your Christian Faith
Jan 31, 2022 Season 2 Episode 19
Jeff Hilles

As Christians, I propose we focus on protecting our families as we see increasing conflicts with the outside world approaching. These 21 tips are intended to provide both scriptural support and practical advice on hiding your Christian faith from outsiders. I apologize at the outset for its length. 

it would be the popular term called faith “deconstruction” which I mentioned above. The concept of deconstruction not only encompasses all of the opportunities listed, it further implies there is a process to that effort. 

Conclusion with Biblical Support

The challenge with the suggestions above stem from a natural conflict that occurs as we implement anti-Christian actions, while remaining a Christian.

This cognitive dissonance (holding two opposing thoughts at the same time) can become irritating, particularly if the Holy Spirit is involved. 


To wrap this up, if you want to hide your Christian faith to protect yourself and your family from those hateful persecutors the Bible warns us about, I have hopefully given you some impressive tips.  Unfortunately, you will have to deal with the verses below. They seem to suggest that Christians should expect to be persecuted rather than hiding their light under a basket (Mat. 5:14-16). I am still working on that rationalization and will get back to you as soon as I can with some more good excuses.

  • Mark 13:13 And you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.
  • 2 Timothy 3:12 Indeed, all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted,
  • Acts 5:41 Then they left the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the name.
  • Matthew 5:10 “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
  • Luke 6:22 “Blessed are you when people hate you and when they exclude you and revile you and spurn your name as evil, on account of the Son of Man!
  • Matthew 5:44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,
  • 1 Peter 4:12-14, 2 Cor. 12:10, 1 Peter 3:14, 1 John 3:13, Rom. 12:14, Rom. 8:35, John 15:20, 1 Peter 3:16, John 16:33, 1 Peter 4:16, John 15:19, Mat. 5:11, etc.
