What does it mean to testify for Christ?

Paul's call to testify for Christ reflects a broader mandate for all believers. In Acts 23:11, the Lord reassures Paul that he has testified of Him in Jerusalem and will continue to do so in Rome. This act of testifying is not merely about winning converts or enlarging the church; it is about bearing witness to the truth and grace that is found in Jesus Christ. Every Christian is called to share their personal experience of Christ and the transformative power of the Gospel in their lives, thus fulfilling the Great Commission.
