DYNAMIC DISCIPLESHIP SERIES
FROM SHATTER THE DARKNESS
How to share your testimony with others is vital. I have lead a lot of people to Christ by just sharing how I came to know Christ and what He did for me. If you have come to Christ then you have a testimony.
My story is a long one about how I lived and what I got into before coming to Christ. Mine is one of searching, selfishness and sin. Its one in which I tried other things because I didn't have the answer.
My wife's story is one of coming to Christ at age 5 and seeing how He saved her just the same...........He also saved her from going through what I did as I searched.
Any testimony for Jesus Christ should have these ingredients:
WHAT YOUR LIFE WAS LIKE BEFORE YOU CAME TO CHRIST
HOW YOU HEARD OR ENCOUNTER CHRIST / WHEN YOU ACCEPTED HIM
WHAT HE DID AND HAS DONE SINCE YOUR SALVATION
You will also want to make sure that throughout your testimony (story) you:
DON'T HAVE TO DIG INTO THE DETAILS OF YOUR SIN
DON'T FOCUS ON JUST YOU
DON'T LEAVE THOSE YOUR TELLING YOUR TESTIMONY TO WITHOUT A CHOICE
The most important thing to do while telling your story is:
POINT TO AND TELL ABOUT JESUS MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE
USE SOME SCRIPTURE IN YOUR STORY
URGE THEM TO ACCEPT CHRIST TOO
You can also
SHARE A GOOD GOSPEL TRACT WHILE SHARING
GIVE THEM A BIBLE
INVITE THEM TO CHURCH, BIBLE STUDY OR OUT REACH EVENT
Your testimony of Jesus Christ and your salvation can lead many to Christ! You can share at Church, Bible study, put it on tape and even put it on the web.
Remember its you story about who, the what and the why of Jesus Christ.
Its very important to know that the Holy Spirit will help you as you tell your testimony. He will guide and empower you to unleash Jesus Christ.
Remember Jesus said
IN JOHN 15:26-27
26"When the Counselor comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father, he will testify about me. 27And you also must testify, for you have been with me from the beginning.
