A Witness: What Has Been Seen And Heard

Posted by jonathan on August 17, 2020 · Leave a Comment

“¹⁴And he [Ananias] said, ‘The God of our fathers appointed you [Paul] to know his will, to see the Righteous One and to hear a voice from his mouth; ¹⁵for you will be a witness to all people of what you have seen and heard.” ~ Acts 22:15 (NIV)

While this text is Paul’s recounting of his conversion to Christ and apostolic calling from God, the implications for us as followers of Christ is that we are to “be his witness to all people of what you have seen and heard.” An apostle means one who is “sent” on a mission as Christ’s witness to proclaim the Good News. The verse above helps us to understand what a “witness” for Christ is expected to do: to tell people what we have personally experienced about Christ.
