A witness can be a True Witness or a false witness. False witnesses accused Jesus before his death, and false witnesses have marred his testimony after his resurrection. The Disciples and Paul were testimonies of the Truth, living holy lives, and laying down their own lives for the testimony of Jesus Christ. In stark contrast to this testimony is the "Holy Office of the Inquisition" of the Catholic Church, which authorized the deaths and torture of millions of people. To decide whether a witness is a true witness, you only need to look at the fruits of that life to see if it mirrors the life of Jesus Christ, the firstfruits. | A witness can be a True Witness or a false witness.
