Week 1: Thursday
Influence
Acts 1
In a court, witnesses give testimony to what they have seen and heard so that the truth might be known and acted upon. As Christ’s witnesses, we are to testify to what we have seen, heard, and learned about Jesus so that the truth of the gospel might be known.
Question 1: (answer in comments)
What can you do to be a witness of Jesus in your spheres of influence?
Being a witness may make us fearful or anxious. But Jesus has not left us alone. The third truth of Acts 1 is that God has sent his Holy Spirit (a promise the disciples had not yet received in Acts 1) to us. The Holy Spirit gives us the power we need to follow Jesus and the confidence we need to live by faith.
