You just did. That is all you have to do is share what you know about Jesus with others.
God bless you

Hi Katie,
I think it's great that you have Jesus in your life. The best way to let this be known to others is by your actions. Words are cheap. They also lead to conflict. Not just between you and another, but also within your own person. How often have you recommended to someone a course of action that you yourself neglect to take?
Just let the love and peace that you feel in your religion fill you up. It will eventually overflow into everything you do and touch people around you without you ever having to say a word.
I personally reject religions, but I believe in the love Jesus had for all people.

If you are in a situation where you are sharing stories and ideas about spirituality, it is alright to tell others you have Jesus in your life. Even talk about how you feel your relationship wih Jesus is and what forms it takes. Remember to be respectful, everyone has a different relationship wih God/Jesus that they cherish and protect very much. Also , try not to encourage others to seek out Jesus, even though Jesus may make you feel good. Jesus may be right for you, but not for others. The best thing to do is to emphasize how Jesus helps you make the world a better place....kindness....patience....charity...stuff like that.

I think what the other fella is trying to say is: "Preach the Gospel at all times. When necessary, use words." This is what St. Francis of Assisi said. What it means is, sometimes the only Gospel (that is Good News of Christ Jesus) will ever hear is your life. Your actions. The best way to tell others about Jesus is to BE Jesus for them.
So read the Gospels. Over and Over and Over again. Until being Christ-Like becomes second nature to you. Everything else will follow.

There is no need to go around telling others.
You should preach Jesus in your actions and not your words.

What is your testimony? Everyone who has made Jesus ones Lord has a story to tell. What is yours? What did Jesus save you from?
Just to warn you though. Use discretion when it comes to the dogs and swine. They will tear you or trample your pearls. Dogs are the rebellious and swine are those that like wallowing in their sin.
I was saved from a horrible breakdown & I shared this with friends who tore me & trampled on my pearls. And that was the end of our friendship. It happened because I was so excited about how Jesus saved me from my breakdown. But, I didn't realize that wounds stick around until you realize you still need healing from them years later. As God is mending the deep wounds today.
And God has healed me many times in my life, so saves me from something every day.

SHINE!.... make them wonder what you got
Make them wish that they were not
On the outside looking forward....
One of my favorite songs by Newsboys....
LET GOD SHINE THRU YOU! Surely, your gonna come across somebody that is troubled and come to you for answers. Don't give them your opinion.....they don't need it.....Tell them their answer lies in JESUS. Help them see JESUS! Ask if they want to pray. Don't say...."l'll pray for you" STOP! and PRAY with them to JESUS....right then!!! (You are leading by example, by turning to God and showing them how to pray to God when you are struggling with anything) When you are done, tell that person to believe that God will take care of it and don't ever give up. Even if that was the 1st time someone ever prayed to God. If the moment brings more than just prayer, ask God to speak thru you and help this person come to Christ.

You can start right here. Y! Answers
Tell others your testimony, and what you were delivered from.
Dont be rude towards non-believers, no matter how rude they may get back with you.
Smile at others as oftern as possible. They will eventually ask why you are so happy all the time.
Just walk everyday in the joy you now have and win others with Love, not heartless confrontation.

Just be natural and he fits into your everyday living and conversation. Mention what time your church services are if you know someone is new in town. Holidays are a great time to ask a neighbor or friend to go to chuch with you. WWJD

Read "Hell's Best Kept Secret" by Ray Comfort, that's a really good book on how to "evangelize".
"I know thats what I'll do if I ever get approached by Ray Comfort or Kirk Cameron on the street." - Ann_Tykreisst
Eh, wouldn't be the first time someone has done that to them. And yet, souls are still converted.
