“And thou shalt put into the ark the testimony which I shall give thee.”

‭‭Exodus‬ ‭25:16‬

Allen and I talk about a recent study and devotion about The Testimony, our testimony and what a testimony is and what it should mean.

What is our testimony?

In the case of the verse above, it is the covenant between God and the people of Israel. It was written on stone tablets to be placed inside the ark. The testimony, or covenant, described the understanding between God and His people. It was the behavior between the two, an agreement of sorts. It is how the people were expected to behave and how God would respond to their behavior. It wasn’t just what was written. It was the understanding.  It is better known as the Ten Commandments.

The Testimony was so important, most of the Old Testament surrounds it. It was the Law from God.

The word testimony is also used throughout the Bible. It is used in the sense of a witnessing to verify truth claims and standards.  So much so, that two witnesses are generally required to support such testimony.

Sound similar? It should, a Christian usually uses this word to describe how they came to know Jesus Christ. Our testimony is our story of what brought us to seek salvation.

Our testimony is our covenant with God. Our behavior, our commitment and our obedience to Him. Our testimony is what our relationship with God looks like. It’s what it looks like on the outside and on the inside. It’s what others see and what we project.

We don't claim to have all the answers - and you should never ever take our word for it - DO YOUR RESEARCH !

Don't ever be ashamed to ask about things you don't understand.  Go to God in prayer, ask for answers to be revealed to you, stay in God's will and read your bible.

We aren't perfect and we don't profess to be, far from it actually - keep that in mind as you listen to our stories.  If you are spending more time picking apart our messages, your spending too much time on the wrong things.  Put your focus back on God.

Read Your Bible.  Pray.  Surround Yourself with Like-Minded Christians.  Gather with Two or More in His Name.

Know your sources, research your topics, cross reference verses and never grieve the Holy Spirit.
