Jesus said, “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be My witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
What do we mean by "witnessing"? Spouting a lot of Bible verses to a non-Christian? Not quite. Witnessing involves all that we are and therefore do; it goes far beyond what we say at certain inspired moments. So the question is not will we witness (speak), but how will we witness (live)? Often students will ask, “Which is more important in witness -- the life that I live or the words that I say?” That’s like asking which wing of an airplane is more important, the right or the left?
When we're trusting Jesus Christ as Lord as well as Saviour, He enables us to live and speak as faithful witnesses.
