An experience of when you have talked of Christ, rejoiced in Christ, preached of Christ, prophesied of Christ, or written of Christ.
Do I talk of Christ? Is he part of my conversations both casual and formal? Does his name come up throughout my week, or only on Sunday?
Do I rejoice in Christ? Am I a gospel optimist? Am I able to maintain my joy in the face of trial and tragedy?
Do I preach of Christ? Do I take my responsibility to proclaim the gospel seriously. Do I look for opportunities to share my faith with others?
Do I prophesy of Christ? Remember from Revelation 19:10 that the spirit of prophesy is the testimony of Jesus. Do I bear testimony of Jesus frequently? Does my life and example testify of Him? And what am I doing to actively strengthen my testimony?
