Boldness to Testify…Not to Argue

We also have to go to man on God’s behalf. We have to tell men about God. Many people have the courage to speak to God, but they have no courage to speak to man. We have to exercise boldness to speak to men. We have to tell them the kind of Lord our Lord is. When we speak, we need to pay attention…never to engage in useless arguments. Try to avoid arguing with the ones you are trying to save because arguments often drive people away instead of bringing them in. If you argue with them, they will run away. Many people think that arguments can touch men’s hearts. Actually, this never happens.

At the most, arguments can convince men’s minds. Their mouths may be shut, but their hearts will not be won over. Arguments produce little result. Try to say less in the way of argument and more in the way of testimony. You have only to tell others that you felt happy and peaceful after you believed in the Lord Jesus, that you sleep well now, and that even meals are becoming tastier. No one can argue with you about these things. They can only wonder. You have to show them that they do not have your kind of peace and joy and that they should therefore believe in the Lord.

Prayer Confession Loving Father thank you for this word. Thank you for revealing to me that arguments are not needed when testifying Christ to others. I choose to show people how happy and peaceful I am from the day I believed. I manifest the love of God that draws many back to Him in Jesus’ name, Amen.
