In Acts 1:6-11, Jesus gives his disciples one clear mission before ascending into heaven: they are to be his witnesses. Instead of letting them focus on times, seasons, or speculation about the kingdom, Jesus redirects them to the Spirit-empowered work of testifying about him. This sermon reminds us that witnessing is not about having every answer or winning every argument, but simply sharing the truth about who Jesus is and what he has done. Christians are called to testify locally, nationally, across barriers, and to the ends of the earth. Real faith does not stay comfortable or silent, but speaks of Christ because the gospel is true and sinners need saving. Until Jesus returns, the church has one job: be his witnesses.
Witnessing is simply sharing the truth about Jesus Christ.
