Da Yu

Saved by Grace for Good Works | Husband | Father of Three

[Da Yu @Spiker_Yu]

About 18 years ago on 6/4/2009, I was a young and naive college student in China.

It was the the 20th year anniversary of Tian'an Men Square event. I had just discovered the truth of that event on social media. Our text books and online sources had no mention of any killing.

I was angry at what the government did and how they hid it from us. So I wrote a few blog pieces on that subject.

That afternoon, I was sitting at the window of my dorm, when a text message came to me.

It's a 0000 number, saying "Da, we know you are at XXX college. We took down your blog. Don't do it again. The consequence will be greater."

I felt the chill down my spine. It was a normal day for everyone else. For me, that's when I determined to leave home for freedom.

Now, almost 17 years later in June 2026, someone again came after me for what I said.

This time, in the US, the land of the free.

This time, as a Christian, who was saved by Grace to do good works, knowing the victory belongs to the Lord.

This time, as a father of 3 young children, and a husband to my wife, who are Americans.

This time, I'm staying to fight. For my children's future. For their faith and many others. For the country that is now my home.

For that eventual day when I hear "good and faithful" servant from my Lord.

My friend Da Yu left communist China for the USA twenty years ago. Last week, his American employer gave him one hour to delete his comment on a friend’s social media post or lose his job.

Da was an atheist when he first moved to Cincinnati for college. And he was excited to get away from the suffocating regime of communist China.

When he arrived here, it wasn’t long before he encountered a group of Christians who shared the gospel with him. God opened his heart to the truth of the gospel and he believed.

As his faith grew, Da became a strong Christian leader and committed evangelist. Now, many years later, he leads a small group at my church and organizes regular evangelistic outreaches for college students.

Da is a kind, smart, and godly Christian man. And he’s among the most committed members of our church. He’s an ordinary Christian who believes the Bible and has a spine. He and his wife have two young children, and she is eight months pregnant with their third.

That’s all background for what I’m about to say.

Last week, he called me out of the blue because he was faced with a difficult decision. One of his friends had just become a Christian and posted on LinkedIn about her baptism (see screenshots).

She wasn’t accustomed to making Linked In posts about Jesus, feeling as though it might be unprofessional. She wondered openly if she should keep her posts secular. But she was excited about her new life in Christ and wanted to share it.

That’s when Da chimed in with a comment on her post that there is no such thing as a purely neutral, “secular” culture. He pointed out that many companies are promoting cultural sins such as homosexuality, transgenderism, and fornication during pride month. If companies can promote those morally regressive “values,” then certainly this woman should not be embarrassed to talk about her Christian faith in public. He was simply encouraging her to be bold for Christ.

WIthin minutes, he got a message from HR. He was called to a meeting with the HR rep and the CEO where he was told he needed to take his comment on her post down immediately. Feeling put on the spot, he said he’d needed to think it over first. He asked, “what if I do not take it down?”

They said, “you have one hour to take it down or lose your job.” So he took a walk outside to gather his thoughts and pray. He spoke to his wife about it, and she told him the man she married was a man of courage, and she would stand by him. He also sought counsel from some men in our church.

Finally, he made his decision. He would not take his comment down. So they fired him. Right there, on the spot. No sooner had the call ended that his laptop was locked and he was unable to access it at all.

This whole episode is tragically ironic, given the fact that he’d moved here from China to get away from these sorts of draconian practices. But that’s the way it is with the LGBTQ regime. If you do not comply and bow the knee to their gods you will be severely punished.

In short, a good man was fired from his job for refusing to cave. He took a stand and paid a price for it. His former employers didn’t care that he’s a responsible, hard working man with a family to provide for. They didn’t care that his wife is eight months pregnant.

None of that matters. Their ideology is everything. They will crush anyone who opposes it.

I asked Da’s permission to tell his story, promising to keep him anonymous. But he responded, “Actually I think using my real name maybe better. A story becomes a lot more real with a name. I want to take a stand for it and encourage others.”

Da took a stand. You can too.

@RusTShackLford Thx brother. Just DMed you.

A thread

1). This is not the first time I saw the LGBT cult at work place. Back in 2022, I was selling SaaS at a small company owned by a national engineering firm.

By God's provision, I was the top sales on the small team, bringing in 40% of the business.

[Da Yu @Spiker_Yu]

7) I don't know exactly how to push back this evil and change things. But I'll start with sharing the Gospel, speaking up, and standing firm. One more: start Christian businesses. Would love to hear your thoughts.

[Da Yu @Spiker_Yu]

6) I think about my 4 yr old girl and 2 yr old boy. Lord willing, they will be Christians in 20 yrs.

And when they face the same bigotry, they come home and ask me "Daddy, why are we not allowed to express our faith at work?"

What am I going to say? "Because I did nothing?"

@jaredhmoore Much appreciated!

[Da Yu @Spiker_Yu]

@doctormew Right. Free speech protection applies to the government, not private entities. This could be religious discrimination.

[Da Yu @Spiker_Yu]

@baur_laura82725 Thanks Laura. After praying, I've decided to pursue small business ownership. That's maximum freedom. Either way, the Lord will provide!

[Da Yu @Spiker_Yu]

My wife is a gem. On our first date 7 years ago, which is our first time meeting, she shared that she has gotten lots of heat at work for saying homosexuality is sin.

She worked at a country youth service office as a psychologist.

I immediately knew I needed a second date there. Praise the Lord for my godly wife.

[Da Yu @Spiker_Yu]

@merelyjwright @dmichaelclary Stay tuned. Will disclose it at the right time.

[Da Yu @Spiker_Yu]

@Acts17David @grok Haha I love these comments. Can't believe a checked record actually gives your so much advantage in bringing up this topic to evangelize Muslims and expose Islam! Good work @Acts17David

I’m still not buying $MU up here ❌

Yes, earnings and guidance were great.

But my bull cycle model says this move is 6x longer and 2x bigger than the average run, and price is stretched far above fair value.

In this video I break down why I’m waiting for 300–320.

The threats are real, they want to kill. Here is the truth about the "radicalized": right now a small group of Americans have become and are becoming radicalized.

This is a major problem, heres why:
Say 1% of the US is "radicalized" that is ~3 million people. 0.5% is 1.5 million, 0.1% is 300,000 people. You currently have a large army of people who want to kill their “opposition”

For years now people and elected officials have falsely called their opposition Nazis and fascists - now enough people believe it to the point where they are killing. Political violence is at a high and those that yell those lies are in office. The war between good and evil has never been so obvious.

[Da Yu @Spiker_Yu]

@AbolitionistFAA Really? Should we allow some psychopath chop up newborns in his basement if he believes he is pleasing his god by sacrificing infants?

Oh wait. That's happening in planned parenthood already.
