“And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest.” There are few better tactics for Christian witness than giving our own, personal testimony. We see Paul endeavor to do so on a number of occasions in this book. Certainly he had a dramatic salvation experience, that lent itself to the telling perhaps more than our own; but God gives to every man the same glorious salvation. The how of its happening is not nearly as important as the reality of its effect. People want to know that Christ has transformed your life and changed your heart. We know that in the end it is only the word of God, in the power of the Holy Spirit that will move a man to faith. Yet it is the testimony of God’s saints that first reveals the efficacy of Bible truth. Every man that believes is a new creature, whether born again in old age or young. This fact alone is affirmation of God’s promise, and your personal revelation of that new life can have amazing impact on the hearer. Don’t be a person afraid to tell your story because it is not like Paul’s. Shout it out with confidence, focusing on the Christ of the Bible and His magnificent saving power!
