“You are to testify because you have been with me from the beginning.” A beautiful fact is on display in this simple sentence. Just as the disciples were with Jesus from the beginning of his ministry, so Jesus has been with us from our beginning. God in God’s genius and perseverance has been with us from our beginnings. Even from the beginnings that gave birth to our beginnings, we are being accompanied by God. To be dressed up in flesh is to be clothed in grace and mercy. From this life, through death, to life again, this is our testimony.
John 15:27
