Daily Witnessing Tips from Witness Radio

Is there any truth to New Age beliefs?Grab a little bit of Hinduism, add a dash of Buddhism, include a heaping dose of occultism, and sprinkle on just a tad of Christianity, and what do you get? New Age Mysticism.This worldview doesn't really have a standard set of beliefs because everyone just makes it up as they go. One of the most popular beliefs in this religion is that humans are gods with supernatural powers and abilities.The truth is, there is only one God and He is the only One with any [...]

Why do Christians believe that sinners are going to Hell?The reality of Hell isn't something that Christians take lightly. In fact, it's because of our belief in the Lake of Fire and our love for others that drives us to warn people about it! Revelation 21:8 says, “But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.? [...]

How can you go from talking about phones into the Gospel? Cell phones today can do just about everything. From email to video games. From book reading to making videos. You can even call people with them! But one thing that no phone can do… forgive your sins! Sin is transgression of God's law, like coveting after the newest phones, which makes you a sinner in danger of heading to Hell for eternity! ​Jesus Christ, God incarnate, made a way for you to escape that fate when He l [...]

How can you use Instagram to share the gospel? Instagram is a mobile app for taking photos and videos and then sharing them with others via social media. If you want to share the Gospel on Instagram, try posting a picture of the back of a Gospel tract or recording a video testimonial.One way that I’ve witnessed on this platform is through Instagram Stories, which is kind of like a video journal that you update throughout the day. You can plan to share little snippets of a complete Gospel [...]

Christianity came from Judaism, so do we worship the same God? While Christianity got its start in Judaism, the god of Judaism is false, because they’ve failed to believe that Jesus is the Messiah. The Bible says “No one who denies the Son has the Father,” so even though they profess to worship Adonai, it’s not acceptable to God because of their rejection of His Son.Now, when witnessing to the Jewish people, direct them to Old Testament Scriptures that are Messianic prophecies. For [...]

Do you worry about what others think of you? One of my favorite Bible verses is Galatians 1:10 because it’s a great reminder to keep my mind focused on serving Christ. It says, “For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.” (ESV)Many of us can get caught up with feeling a need for approval, but when we do things to garner acceptance from humans, our heart isn’t in the rig [...]

Was Jesus in the grave for three days or only two?Skeptics claim that Jesus failed to fulfill the prophecy about His death being for three days and three nights since Jesus died on Friday and rose on Sunday, but from the historical and biblical view, a new day started when it got dark, not at midnight. Now, do you remember how darkness fell upon the land during Jesus’ death? It’s during this period of darkness, or night, that Jesus was buried.​Therefore, early Friday afternoon would b [...]

What tool can make the gospel heard loud and clear?When you want to share the Gospel with a large crowd, it can be helpful to have a PA system or amp. They come in lots of shapes and sizes with varying levels of loudness and portability.I have a baby amp for sharing with small crowds and my big boy amp is for large areas, but it’s not as portable. The big one also comes in handy when ministering outside of abortion centers because you can share the Gospel with people that are inside the buildi [...]

What's the difference between Catholics and Protestants? ​Many people believe that Catholics and Christians are one and the same, but the truth is, there are some very dangerous teachings that come from the Roman Catholic church. Catholicism teaches that Mary is a co-mediator with Jesus, but the Bible says that Jesus is the ONLY mediator between God and man. They believe that praying to Mary and the Saints is okay, but the Bible says that inquiring of the dead is an abomination to th [...]

What happens to people that have never heard about Jesus? ​I’ve heard this question asked so many times during my witnessing endeavors that I’m beginning to think there’s a Beginner’s Guide to Skepticism that I don’t know about. Typically, people ask this question to somehow justify their sinful behavior, and think, “If a guy living in a hut is safe, then there’s a chance for me if I just put my fingers in my ears!”However, Romans 1:18 debunks that theory, saying, “For t [...]

Did you know that thousands of Americans will die today?Over 3,000 babies are murdered every day in America, thanks to abortion providers, like Planned Parenthood. The slaughter of unborn children should never be acceptable, but in America, it’s applauded!Advocates of abortion say, “It’s a woman’s right to choose,” but they never finish that statement. What exactly is the woman choosing? She’s choosing murder! Others say, “My body, my choice!” Um, since when do human bodies have [...]

Have you ever tried using live video to share the gospel?Periscope is one of the original live video platforms that allows others to see the world through your eyes. This app helps people to find you through their live video map and highlights random live videos on the Periscope website. It also allows viewers to interact with you through chat bubbles.Now, why is all of this important? Well, it’s important because you can use this medium to broadcast the Gospel all over the world! I’ve used [...]

Have you ever seen a statue of Buddha and ​wondered what Buddhism teaches?That statue of a fat, bald guy at your favorite Chinese restaurant is a depiction of Siddhartha Gautama (Sid-Hart-A Got-A-Ma), also known as Buddha.Buddhists believe that suffering exists in this world because people aren’t content and that the way to end suffering is by having no desire for anything. They desire to reach nirvana, a state of of perfect happiness, but it can’t be achieved, because the desire to reach [...]

Where in the Bible can we find the key principle to biblical evangelism?There are many techniques and methods for sharing your faith, but are any of them biblical? James 4:6 says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” If someone is prideful and thinks they can earn their way into Heaven, they'll spend eternity in Hell. When you witness to someone, don't focus on them, because chances are, they do that enough already. Instead, use God's moral law to break through their p [...]

How can you witness to someone while talking about the beach?The beach can be a picture of paradise on earth, but many paint a distorted picture of the paradise offered by God. They say God will give you health, wealth, and happiness, but those things aren't promised in the Bible. Followers of Jesus Christ are actually promised trials, temptation, and persecution. Jesus said that people will hate you for following Him. Now, knowing this, why would anyone want to be a Christian? Because [...]

How can you keep your pride in check when witnessing?Pride can be a dangerous thing because it can cause us to look down on others who don’t possess the knowledge or skill that we have. What's even worse, is that it can cause us to get puffed up while out witnessing, instead of giving God the glory.Many times in Scripture we see an emphasis on being humble. Even our Savior, Jesus Christ, humbled Himself and washed the feet of His disciples. We should always lift up Christ and lower ourse [...]

What is big and bold and helps you to share the Gospel?Gospel Signs have gotten a bad rap lately, thanks to groups like the Westboro Baptist Cult, but when they’re used properly, they can reach a ton of people with the message of eternal life! Signs with short, witty messages can leave a lasting impression upon the readers and using signs with Scripture are great too because it isn't your words or opinions. I like to include a Gospel website where people can go for more information.​Now [...]

Are Seventh-Day Adventists just Christians that worship on Saturday?When Satan deceived Eve in the garden, he mixed in some truth with his lie, so that Eve wouldn’t notice. The same goes for the Seventh-Day Adventist group. Many of their beliefs appear to line up with Biblical Christianity, but look closer, and you’ll find some major problems!They profess to “accept the Bible as the only source of [their] beliefs,” yet some of their doctrines can’t even be found in the Bible. Seventh-D [...]

How many paths are there to salvation?The Bible is clear, “there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under Heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 tells us that Jesus is the only one who can save us. He was crucified on your behalf, rose from the grave, and offers complete forgiveness of sin.All other world religions claim to have some form of eternal paradise, but it’s not a gift that’s freely offered to you. They tell you to do good works, so th [...]

Are you a coffee drinker? How would you use it to share the Gospel?Caution! This coffee’s hot! Warning labels on your drive-thru coffee may seem pretty obvious, but they're there for a reason… to warn you of impending danger! Just like that label, I'm also here to warn you about the potential of getting burned. The Bible says that if your name isn’t found in the book of life, you’ll be thrown into the lake of fire. This is because you’ve sinned against God, maybe by using His name [...]

When times are tough, who do you call for help?When facing moments of trial or temptation, it can be hard to remember that you need to take some time to pray. But it’s exactly what you need during those moments, because God can give you the strength to overcome any obstacle.Look at how people dealt with adversity in the Bible… Jesus always prayed during times of trouble. The Apostles devoted themselves to prayer, and in the book of James, we’re specifically told to pray when suffering.Pray [...]

Can you share the Gospel in 140 characters?Twitter is a social media platform used by millions to get updates and more information about current events, or their favorite celebrities, and anything else you can think of. So, why couldn't you use it to share the gospel?Well, with the limited character count, you definitely need to get creative! Try using letters, numbers, or symbols to represent entire words and don’t forget about all the emoji characters that are available. Remember to use tren [...]

What do you know about Hinduism?Hinduism is supposedly the oldest world religion with a history tracing back 10,000 years. I disagree, since everything was created only 6,000 years ago, but that’s a subject for another tip. With over one billion followers, Hinduism is considered to be the third largest religion in the world. They profess to believe in one god, named Brahman, but he takes on the form of millions of different deities. ​When witnessing to a Hindu, make sure to express [...]

Where did everything come from? Was it a big bang?There’s no mention in the Bible about a big bang that created everything, only God was in the beginning. Genesis 1:1 says, “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth” and as you continue reading in Genesis 1, you’ll see that He spoke all things into existence. The Earth, space, time, light, land, plants, suns, moons, stars, animals, and humans were all created in six days by God, not billions of years by a cosmic explos [...]

Does your attitude affect the outcome of witnessing conversations?Who would you rather have a conversation with? A mean-spirited jerk that doesn’t listen to anything you say or a person that’s kind, listens to you, and wears a smile on their face as well as their voice?When we get into witnessing conversations, we need to keep our attitudes in check, because everything we say and do is a representation of Christ to those that don’t know Him. After all, the Bible tells us that whatever we d [...]
