Our witness to God’s good news (the Gospel), His love for us, and His faithfulness have given us the word of testimony.
The word testimony comes from the Greek word, μαρτυρία -ας, ἡ; (martyria), n. testimony; witness. This is where we get the word martyr, although we may define martyr a bit differently than a witness.
