Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

We are not all evangelists of course, but we can all be witnesses of what the Lord has done in our lives.

In today’s world, we feel a lot of pressure to be good apologists. (Defender of the faith)
We worry that people demand ‘proof’ and perfect arguments. We sense inadequacy to ‘give an answer’ as the Apostle Peter writes. But not everyone is a wordsmith or a rhetorician.
It is encouraging to reflect on the description of Jesus in Revelation 1 as “the Faithful Witness.”
See, a witness does not need evidence. A witness is evidence. In a courtroom, a witness will describe what they’ve seen and they will state plainly what they know to be true from their direct experience. They don’t have to say “how” a thing happened, or explain “why” something they saw is so. They just say it as they know it. And it is entered as evidence.

 

In the gospels, we never see Jesus in the process of figuring out truth. He just states it plainly. Neither does he spend a lot of time trying to prove Himself or prove His claims. It is often said that He “spoke with authority” – and that is seen in the way He simply stated the truth He knew.  He is being a witness.
“…we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen…” (John 3:11)
He was a witness to God and to the truth, whether or not He proved it with argument. He was a witness as soon as He simply declared what He knew it in His words and conducted Himself accordingly.
At His ascension, Jesus said, “You will be my witnesses… to the end of the earth.”
Don’t underestimate the power of mere witness. If your life is the life of a disciple of Jesus Christ, it is witnessing. If your words are true to what you know or have experienced, that is witnessing.

 

This is what Jesus asks of you, and this is what He did.
Tell people you’re a Christian. Conduct yourself in a manner worthy of Christ. Say what you know to be true. You may never be a genius apologist, but you have been His witness.
