Witnessing
“You shall be My witnesses…unto the uttermost part of the earth”; “You are witnesses of these things” (Acts 1:8; Luke 24:48).

According to the Bible, there are five expressions related to preaching the gospel. The first is witnessing. The Lord commanded His disciples to preach the gospel. On the one hand, He commanded them to preach the gospel to all creation, and on the other, He commanded them to be His witnesses to the uttermost part of the earth. Bearing the testimony of the Lord involves preaching the gospel. The best way to preach the gospel is to testify how the Lord saved us and how we experienced the Lord’s salvation through His death and resurrection on our behalf. This is very effective.

“Go to your house, to your own people, and report to them what great things the Lord has done for you, and how He has had mercy on you” (Mark 5:19).

The Lord spoke this word to a man who was set free from being possessed by demons. The Lord wanted him to witness to his own people and report to them the great things He had done for him and how He had mercy on him. Once we are saved, we should report the salvation that we received to our relatives and friends and should witness to them. This is a preaching of the gospel, and it can bring our relatives and friends to salvation.

“The woman left her waterpot and went away into the city, and said to the people, Come, see a man who told me all that I have done. Is this not the Christ?… Many of the Samaritans from that city believed into Him because of the word of the woman who testified” (John 4:28-29, 39).

The Lord met a Samaritan woman by a well in Sychar. When she realized that the Lord was the Christ, she left her waterpot and went into the city where she lived and testified of the Lord. As a result, many believed in the Lord Jesus because of her testimony. A new believer should witness for the Lord because the witnessing of a newly saved one can easily move people to believe into Him. Therefore, newly saved brothers and sisters should visit their gospel friends. They can witness in a fresh way to the salvation that they received. This can move people to repent and believe in the Lord and help them to know the Lord’s salvation (Crucial Truths in the Holy Scriptures, vol. 3, ch. 28, pp. 501-502).
