The testimonies of the apostles centre on Jesus Christ—crucified, raised by the Father, and now alive. But this message is not only about what happened; it is about how we live. It calls people into the same way of life Jesus lived: a life of trust in the Father and dependence on the Spirit. The gospel is not just information to believe; it is life to be lived. Jesus said His words are spirit and life, and the Holy Spirit continues to teach and form people according to those words. As that happens, people become less driven by impulse, culture, or mere intellect, and more responsive to the Spirit at work within them.
