towns. We have gathered helpful information and put it all in one easy to
access location. The Web Witnessing site has been designed to help you find all

and may you have confidence to share your faith.
Witnessing for Christ is the command of the Lord Jesus to every believer. Acts
1:8; 1 Pet. 3:15; Mk. 5:18,19.
The effectiveness and clarity of the believer's
witnessing depends, in large measure, on his understanding of
the Last Judgment. Sins will
not be the issue! The only reason that a person will stand at
the Last Judgment is that he
rejected Christ during his lifetime. John 3:18; 3:36. All sins
have been judged at the
Cross, and there is no double jeopardy.
Witnessing is impossible apart from the filling of the Holy
Spirit. John 16:8-11. And the
Holy Spirit must minister to the unbeliever to apply the
doctrine of salvation.
In Rom. 1:14-16, the apostle Paul says "I am debtor", "I am
ready",
and "I am not ashamed". A fisherman has a desire to fish. One
is not a
"fisher of men" without a desire to win souls.
There are two sources for a Christian's witness: (1) the
testimony of his life, 2 Cor.
3:3, and (2) the testimony of his lips, 2 Cor. 5:14-21.
There is a reward for witnessing. 1 Cor. 3:11-16; 2 Cor. 5:10.
Rewards in heaven are an
extension of edification; the only things that are rewarded in
heaven is what is done on
the basis of Grace. Thus, every reward in heaven is an eternal
memorial to the grace of
God. Grace means that rewards do not reflect any personal glory
or merit. It is the Lord
who enables us to labor for Him.
Ephesians 6:15, "And your feet shod with
the preparation of the gospel of peace."
Going
to church doesn't make you a Christian, any more than going
to a garage makes you an automobile.
--- Billy Sunday
Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers
are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest,
therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field."Matthew 9:37-38
