In Acts 1:8 we have the following verse of Scripture.



Act 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.



What then is it to be a witness of Yeshua/Jesus.

I think the "courtroom" definition of witness is a good one... A witness is someone who shared what they've seen and experienced. Accurately, of course =) So, in being witnesses for Christ, we are called to share what we've seen of Him in our lives and how we have experienced Him.



I think it's worth noting here that this involves more than just presenting someone w/ a tract. When you witness, you're sharing what you've seen and experienced, not just "intellectual" facts, and not even always through words.

If you wanted to know what a witness was you would look at the word, and see what all those did that received the Gift of the Holy Ghost, that is what the book of Acts is.



The scripture to be a witness, not to witness!

PJ that is a clear verse to be a witness to tell others about Jesus Christ Acts chapter 2 was showing the power of God they spoke in tongues and every man herd in their own language tongues is language the most important thing that happened at pentecost was 3000 souls were saved when a man gets saved the holy spirit moves in and gives us the power the boldness to be a witness we are commanded by God to be a witness to tell others about Jesus

Hamilton we already no you do not agree with the bible it would be better to for you to not oppose the word of God.



The verse says nothing as you try to imply, and as for the truth, those that have received the Holy Spirit as Jesus taught know what the word says is true.



The lord Jesus is the one that told the Disciples to what there in the upper room, I am confident he know what was important, he made it clear it was far more important to receive the Gift of the Holy Ghost.



You might want to go Back and read Acts 1:8 it reads power to be a witness, not to witness.

@ Hamilton:

Hamilton,i hope that you are as glad as I,that when we take our last breathe that it will be Yeshua/Jesus we stand before and not PJ.

Again,am i glad that Yeshua/Jesus and not PJ is my advocate.



PJ:

I love you,yet I believe most of the time you have no clue of what you are saying...

By adamantly opposing almost everyone and almost everything they say,

You are not encouraging,admonishing,or correcting,all you seem to do is oppose and belittle people.



To say that people are opposing the word of God,or that the word of God does not agree with what someone is saying,have you actually asked the person to make clear to you what they are saying..No you just tear them a new you know what.



You remind me about the Geico commercial about the drill sergeant turned psychiatrist.



You are the Lords child,i want Him to deal with you.

In love of course.

George it is not hard at all to understand, you must first believe the word of God is true, and yes George, you as all of us will stand before the lord when we leave this life, and you will have to account for the disbelief and any and all you cause to stumble, Faith does not come from man's opinion's it comes from the word of God. Just as in this post as side with one opposing the word of God, to try to make another look bad and you to be right.



Question George who is Glorified in unbelief?
