Such testimonies are given in good faith and with the intention of bringing honor to Christ. Raising these questions will be dimly viewed by many evangelicals. But the full and final authority of Scripture and the honor of the Lord of Scripture require such questions. The Bible Does Not Support Such Testimonies. There is a true biblical testimony.
Testimony is a major element in the piety of evangelicalism.
Perhaps the nearest thing in the Bible to an evangelical-type testimony appears in 2 Corinthians 12. But rather than supporting evangelical-type testimonies, this passage should forever convince us that we should not indulge in them. The Corinthians themselves were the ones at fault. The accent of the biblical testimony is the mighty work of God in King Jesus, the Lord of Lords, who became flesh for us and for our salvation. The focus is on gospel events and not on the internal or existential effects or fruit of the gospel.
