THE QUALIFICATIONS OF A WITNESS (2)

[Apostle Cynthia Agbuye]

The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are children of God: Romans 8:16 KJV
These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. 1 John 5:13 KJV
If we receive the witness of men, the witness of God is greater: for this is the witness of God which he hath testified of his Son. He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 1 John 5:9-10 KJV
Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God, (Which he had promised afore by his prophets in the Holy Scriptures, ) Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord, which was made of the seed of David according to the flesh; And declared to be the Son of God with power, according to the spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead: By whom we have received grace and apostleship, for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name; Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ: To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all, that your faith is spoken of throughout the whole world. For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers; Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you. For I long to see you, that I may impart unto you some spiritual gift, to the end ye may be established; That is, that I may be comforted together with you by the mutual faith both of you and me. Now I would not have you ignorant, brethren, the oftentimes I purposed to come unto you, (but was let hitherto,) that I might have some fruit among you also, even as among other Gentiles. I am debtor both to the Greeks, and to the Barbarians; both to the wise, and to the unwise. So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also. For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth, to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. Romans 1:1-16 KJV
And be not drunk with wine, wherein excess; but be filled with the Spirit; Ephesians 5:18 KJV

We who are witnesses of Jesus Christ the Son of God, must bear witness in the Spirit, witness in the word, witness in the faith. When we have believed in the Son then we have the witness with in us. We have been separated set apart to bear witness of the gospel of God. We have a holy desire to share spiritual gifts, a purpose to bear fruit, an obligation to pay a spiritual debt; an eagerness to share the gospel and a boldness to exalt the cross. When we have been separated, We seek only to share the Good News with the lost, for we have been filled with the Holy Spirit we are commanded to be filled with the Holy Spirit.
