When Jesus said, "you shall be my witnesses", many Christians
have taken this to mean that we are to witness, thereby reducing
evangelism to verbal formulas.
It is important to focus on Jesus' command that we be witnesses.
It means to some that evangelism is to involve the totality of our
lives. Everything about our lifestyle counts, such as how we treat
our children, how we spend money, our business ethics, and on
and on.
Let us not forget that our neighbor might judge Jesus Christ by
what he sees in us.
