* Your work is your testimony.

* Jesus was prepping His disciples for His departure, letting them know they will be hated because of Him.

* But He tells them He’s going to leave a gift - His Spirit to live inside them.

* That would be like the Spirit of Lebron James living in my 14 year old son, Jake.

* What does the Holy Spirit do?

* Vs 26 - He TESTIFIES about Jesus (this is the FIRST testimony).

* A “testimony” is “evidence or proof of the existence or appearance of something.”

* Just like a person vouching for someone’s character - “this guy is ossum, he’s the real deal.”

* The Holy Spirit is the voice inside you that tells you Jesus is real.

* When we do the right thing we have the testimony of the Holy Spirit inside us telling us that what we did was right.

* *** The Holy Spirit is doing the same in other peoples’ lives as well.

* Vs 27 - We testify about Jesus (this is the SECOND testimony).

* The way we live our lives should point people to Jesus.

* Our testimony should line up with the testimony in their heart.

* If the two testimonies don’t match then:

* We fail to “be a testimony.”

* People may not come to know Jesus.

* This puts extreme accountability on us.

* If you see your work as worship then the testimonies will always match!

* Your work is your testimony!
