Well, when a person calls themself a "witness" it usually means they either saw &/or heard the incident or they experienced it themselves. But most of the time, when a Religious person witness' to me, they are talking about something they did not see or hear and didn't experience (ie: quoting from the Bible). They didn't experience Jesus walking on water... they read about it. So, they really can't be a witness to that incident.

In the Christian sense, 'witness' means 'evangalize'.
You will 'witness' to a person, about the Godespiels.

When I witness to people, I tell them about Jesus and all of the good things He has done for me.

Some witness to their own insecurity. Some to their need to control. Some to their own ignorance. Some to their anger. Some to their fear.
And a blessed few to the joy they have found.

That they are lost and need you for assistance.
Great question!
Please consider these tidbits:
Jews for Jesus = Vegetarians for Hamburgers
God? He or She?
Church? Christianity? Jesus? Dying?
What is the Imacculate Conception supposed to mean?
Does Imacculate Conception have anything to do with "VIRGIN BIRTH"?
Google Imacculate Conception and learn that is NOT.
What else do you falsely believe?
Jesus, the basis of Christianity? .
If Jesus died, he could NOT have been God.
Can Gods die?
If Jesus 'died' on Friday and 'undied' on Sunday, what else besides Saturday was sacrificed?
Did Jesus give up Saturday for us?
No Eternal sacrifice, big deal for a day!
If Jesus died for our sins, there should not be any more sins, else why go through with it?.
If Jesus really DIED, he should be dead, dead, dead!
Life after death is like virginity after childbirth.
If the flesh of Jesus died, what was seen walking and talking on Sunday?
If you believe this stuff, you are not going to like the folks who don't. You want them to believe it too to validate you.
Christians want everyone to convert to their non-thinking in order to be 'saved'.
Believing and not thinking is like choosing to be lost.

what they witnessing are what God did for them in life. e.g. how they were saved from the accident ,or how they enjoyed the grace personal or family.
and they preaching for others not for themselves. Glory to the Heaven not to person.they always pray. etc.

SUPPOSED TO WITNESS: What Christ did for you so that you may inherit eternal life.
WHAT MANY ACTUALLY WITNESS: A lifestyle choice. :o(
