How Do We Talk to Others About Jesus?Chapter 5 — New Life
Lesson 40: How Do We Talk to Others About Jesus?God calls us to show and tell, with joy, who Jesus is.
Explanation
To talk to others about Jesus means to say sincerely who He is and what He has done. We do not have to be impressive or know all the answers. God uses the simple, clear, and loving witness of those who know Christ.
A Christian witness does not aim to make us important, but to show the Lord Jesus. The result is in God’s hands, but the call to witness is ours.
Bible story
The Samaritan woman, after meeting Jesus, goes into the town and simply tells what the Lord had done for her. She did not have a complicated speech, but she spoke sincerely. God used her witness to draw many people to Christ.
Remember
- The truth: God calls us to show and tell, with joy, who Jesus is.
- You can talk about Jesus simply and sincerely, without pretending to know everything.
- A good witness seeks the glory of Christ, not the admiration of people.
Matthew 5:16
“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
