How you came to know Jesus
and/or any real life experience that shows how God
changed your life and saved you from the pit of Hell.
A christian testifiying of
God's goodness in his/her life.
If you're a christian, you
have a testimony.
Every christian's
testimony is different. Value your's and thank God for
saving you.
Power Of Your
Personal Testimony
No one can argue what God
has done in your life. Proclaim what He has done to all
who might doubt whether or not the God of the Bible
exist.
Words, ideas, reasonings,
stats, and worldly knowledge are useless when witnessing
to peolple who claim that there is no God. Your personal
testimony can prove them wrong.

God is real ?...because He changed your life !" -Ron

How To Give Your
Personal Testimony Effectively
Explain how Jesus gives
you hope to make it through this crazy world. Tell about
all things He has done for.
Explain that Jesus has
given you peace, joy, victory over the Devil, happiness,
power, faith, an assurance of salvation. Tell how He has
filled your life with LOVE.
Format of a Personal
Testimony:
20% - 30% of
Personal testimony should discuss your life
before you met Jesus.
20% - 30% of
Personal testimony sholud discuss how you met
Jesus.
50% - 60% of
Personal testimony should discuss your life since
you met Jesus.
If you were involved in
drugs, alcohol, sex, etc. prior to meeting Jesus you
should discuss that briefly. Emphasize how you still felt
empty after the feelings past. Tell how Jesus filled that
void in your heart with LOVE and JOY.
If you grew up in the
church and/or recieved salvation at an early age, feel
free to skip the first step of the Personal Testimony
Outline (Before you met Jesus) and discuss how God
protected you from the trash of this world from an early
age.
Trials and "bad
times" in your life that God brought you through
make awesome testimonies.
If God set you free of any
major sin patterns, depressing feelings, diseases, or
hurt/pain, feel free to use that to support the fact that
there is a God.
Supernatural miracles that
you have witnessed also can disprove an unbeliever.
