The Courtroom

The Courtroom of the World

You will be my witnesses--in Jerusalem, in all of Judea, in Samaria, and in
every part of the world.
Acts 1:8 (NCV)

We are witnesses. And like witnesses in a court, we are called to testify,
to tell what we have seen and heard. And we are to speak truthfully. Our
task is not to whitewash nor bloat the truth. Our task is to tell the truth.
Period.


There is, however, one difference between the witness in court and the
witness for Christ. The witness in court eventually steps down from the
witness chair, but the witness for Christ never does. Since the claims of
Christ are always on trial, court is perpetually in session, and we remain
under oath.
