"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes." - Romans 1:16
Reflection
Luke, a physician and careful historian, documented "many convincing proofs" that Jesus rose from the dead. This wasn't blind faith—it was evidence-based conviction. The disciples touched Jesus, ate with Him, and conversed with Him after His resurrection. They became so convinced of His reality that every one of them was willing to die rather than deny what they had witnessed.
Our willingness to share Christ with others is directly proportional to how convinced we are of who He truly is. When we're genuinely persuaded that Jesus is the Author of Life, the Creator of all things, the Savior of the world, and the source of all love, His message becomes the most important word we could ever speak.
You don't need perfect theology or eloquent speeches. You simply need to tell what you know. Share the moments when God showed up in your life. Speak about the difference Scripture has made. These are seeds of God's word, and they carry power beyond your ability to articulate them.
Reflection Questions
- How convinced are you that Jesus is who He claimed to be?
- What evidence in your own life confirms the reality of Christ?
- What fears hold you back from sharing your faith with others?
