Testimony Before The Lost
Let us begin to muse from Colossians 4:5-6 when Paul deals with our testimony before the lost. Most people want to see us walk before they listen to us talk. The phrase toward them that are without speaks of the lost. Paul says let us walk in wisdom. The phrase walk in wisdom means let what I say about Christ match what I live out of my life. A great preacher of yesterday Dr. Will Houghton was once pastor of the great Moody Tabernacle. A group of people hired a private investigator to follow the preacher. The private investigator came back later and said, his life matches his preaching. The investigator was later saved by the grace of God.
