Can you think of a time when you were called upon to give a defense of your faith in Christ? If so, briefly explain.
-
I have not yet been called upon to give a defense.
-
Yes. When someone ask me of my faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. I told the person how and what the Lord Jesus Christ done in my life and how He changed my life forever.

I usually get asked a variety of questions from people at my job. One individual asked me how can they quiet the negative voices . This person is unsaved and somewhat unstable as well. I explained to him about the Armor of God and that our war we fight is not carnal rather spiritual. I also explained that the power I have to defend myself comes from the Holy Spirit which comes from being saved by the blood of Jesus. I gave him my Bible and showed him in God’s word. I pray he will get saved but only God knows if he will

I can remember when I was young, I was more zealous with scripture. Today I feel like a different person, I am slow to learn and understand the word and I am not as confident as I was at 18 years old. I can remember justifying my believe to friends on the playground. Even with Jehovah Witnesses, they did not know much about Jesus Christ back then because they were only allowed to study the Old Testament. I found out that they had much insight about Yahweh, but it puzzled me that they did not know Jesus Christ. I also remember becoming angry about not being able to convince a young person that Christianity was the true faith. I got into an argument that day and I felt so ashamed of the way I handled things. I did not know anything about apologetics back then.

Yes, I can remember a time when asked about my faith why I changed so much and begin sharing with my friend why I was not still living, the way they knew me. I begin sharing the gospel with them and they begin to ask antagonistic questions and I had not remembered any scriptures to defend what I was saying, and they continued being obnoxious and I begin to get angry and my responses were rude and disrespectful because I couldn't defend my faith appropriately. I begin praying and I started studying 1Peter 3:15 and found out that there's proper way to witness to someone, and how as a follower of Jesus Christ should respond to others in a respectful way and how to glorify God during the process.
