How to Share Your Testimony Biblically

What is a Testimony?

The Hebrew word for testimony is `eduwth, which means to witness, and the Greek word is martyreō, which means to bear witness, testify, bear record, have a good report. So testify what God has done.

“...One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see.” John 9:25

I repented (turned away from sin) and placed my trust in Jesus Christ - Acts 3:19, Ephesians 2:8-9

- My New Life in Christ

I have been cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ - 1 John 1:7

If you received Jesus as a young child, you still have an awesome testimony. You can tell how Jesus keeps a person from falling into gross sin. Your testimony should include how you became a Christian, even if you do not remember all of the circumstances. Be specific in telling what Christ has done in your life, but don’t glorify your past as that was before Christ. So, tell the truth about how Jesus has saved you and changed your life, and allow the Holy Spirit to lead you. Every Christian can tell others of God’s grace because we have been saved from the wages of sin which leads to death, and have received the free gift of eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. Pray and remember your testimony is not really about you but what God has done in your life.
