"When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?
And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.
He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?
And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven."
A testimony is not gained by earthly experiences, but by sacred spiritual circumstances which give us an assurance that no worldly witness could give.
Charles Didier said, "The purpose of these spiritual keys is to open spiritual doors, one by one, to come to a plain testimony as described by the prophets. Spiritual ashes might be all that are left of what was once a burning, loving, meaningful, and uplifting testimony." This means that we need to continue having these spiritual experiences that the Lord offers us so that we can strengthen our testimonies.
