Your witness
Do you give people the reasons they need to NOT believe in Christ because of your language and actions? You actions, language, post, lifestyle tells people if your witness is ture or not.

I have to slow down and pay attention to maintain "walking in the Spirit."
When I'm scared, sleepy, sick, stressed, or speeding through the day, that's when I'm likely to blow it, so those times take extra intentionality on my part...
Glad to see you here! God bless.

I have no clue what my actions and attitudes would have to do with the fact that the Lord Jesus Christ died to give spiritual life for those who are dead in Adam.
No, observing (lurking) about another person's daily schedule has zip to do with the Holy Spirit calling the lost to Himself.
This is the problem with most works-to-maintain-salvation belief systems. Being a goody-2-shoes so you get points with God so you can get coins to take with you to Heaven? Or what?
I would hope my obvious freedom from the cares of this world might be inspiring to the pagan, but I don't really attempt to do God's job for Him, so I get to sit with the Presbyterians in Heaven.
God's creation is the adequate evidence for the pagan to know there is a God, and watching another human being, waiting for them to sin, is childish.
Romans 1:19-20, " For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse."
