I hate subliminal imaging (dRiNk pEpSi). Introduced in 1897, the concept became controversial as "subliminal messages" in 1957 when marketing practitioners claimed its potential use in persuasion (gO tO ChUrCh). Visual stimuli may be quickly flashed before an individual may process them, or flashed and then masked, (cHuRCh=Go) thereby interrupting the processing, don't you hate that?
Well truth is most Christians are subliminal in that they hide their faith and expect others to just see the quick prayer over their food that could be mistaken as a yawn, nose wipe, or a muttered word. "But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost" 2 Cor 4:3. Or some chose to live worldly and blend in, then get mad if the preacher says on Sunday to repent and live right because someone is watching your life. NEWS FLASH - if your saved you have lost people watching your life - do they see Christ crucified in you, or are you hiding it, using only subliminal imaging? On judgement day I really don't believe a good response would be "but I thought they saw the Bible in my car trunk, and knew I was a Christian"!!!!!!! So the real question is Who are you hiding the gospel from? Classmates, co-workers, children?
