You are a witness for Jesus

“You will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere.” (Acts 1:8 NLT)

What does a witness for Jesus do?

A witness for Jesus tells other people what He has done in their life. It’s not complicated. A witness just says, “Here’s what I’ve seen. Here’s what I heard. Here’s what He did for me.”

An example of a witness for Jesus

Jesus healed a blind man and the religious leaders tried to ask him religious questions he didn’t know how to answer. So he simply told what Jesus had done for him.

“One thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see.” (John 8:25)

Therefore

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” (Acts 1:8)

“Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.” (Col. 4:6)

“But in your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the ho that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect,” (1 Peter 3:15) 

“In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.” (Matt. 5:16 ESV)
