Why did I go to TikTok?
Well, I was on Facebook for years. Sometimes I would get hundreds of views. Two or three times I got thousands of views. I wasn't bashing anybody while on Facebook. There wasn’t a reason for them to ban me. I was just proclaiming the name above all names, as I often do, the name of Jesus. Somewhere along the way an Instagram account bound itself to my Facebook account. I showed them that it wasn’t my Instagram account, but they blocked me anyway–I guess too much talk churchy talk?
So I went to TikTok, and the same thing happened. I've got some videos with only two or three views and some with hundreds of views, and I have one (or maybe two) with thousands of views.
Why?
Well, not because the messenger is so important (me), but because the Message is so life-changing, which is the full gospel of Jesus Christ. Because He's no longer just a Lamb slain before the foundation of the world. Now, He is the King of kings and Lord of lords with all authority in heaven and earth given unto Him. The Lord said to my Lord, “Sit at my right hand until I make thy enemies a footstool under thy feet.”
His feet are burnished bronze.
His eyes are like fire.
His raiment is glowing.
His hair is white.
And those people left behind in the Great Tribulation will be saying, “Save us from the Lamb that sits upon the throne.”
Revelation 6:16-17 NIV
They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! [17] For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?”
Yeah, I'm just a messenger. But the power and the beauty of the gospel is that there are millions of messengers out there just like little ol’ me saying the same thing: “Jesus is Lord. God raised Him from the dead. He’s been given the Name above all Names! And He's coming back very soon!”
So, keep on keepin’ on, my Gospel-shoutin’ brothers and sisters. Keep on keepin’ on when the platforms change, when the algorithms choke your reach, when the doors you didn’t knock on suddenly slam shut. Keep on keepin’ on when your voice feels small and your audience looks invisible—because the power has never been in the platform. It’s always been in the proclamation.
Keep telling people about Jesus. Keep telling them what the Gospel actually means—Good News for the lost, the broken, the condemned, the ones already born on a road they didn’t choose. Wide is the road that leads to destruction, and most don’t even realize they’re walking it. But narrow is the path that leads to Life Everlasting, and Jesus came to pull us off the wide road and place our feet on solid ground.
I’m just one messenger. But I’m not alone. There are millions of us saying the same ancient, unshakeable truth: Jesus is Lord. God raised Him from the dead. He bears the Name above every name. And He is coming again.
So this holiday season, with all the noise and lights and distractions swirling around us, I choose Life.
And I hope—truly hope—you do as well.
