KJV
Following in the foot steps of Jesus we find that Jesus had a good testimony before the world.
(1 Peter 2:21 For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:) Why is this so important? Because Jesus could not be denied even by those that denied Him. Pilate who scourged Jesus and then condemned Jesus to die knew who Jesus was and could not deny Him. The Roman soldiers who carried out the order of the cross knew who Jesus was and could not deny Him. The Pharisees who claimed Jesus a blasphemer asked for the tomb to be sealed and a watch set and that reason being they knew who Jesus was and could not deny Him. Jesus could not be denied even by those who denied Him. Keep a good testimony Christian, walk with the Lord, for even when you are falsely accused you accusers will not be able to deny who you are, what you are and the one you serve. A good testimony, a good report from those without is important. (1 Tim 3:7 Moreover he must have a good report of them which are without; lest he fall into reproach and the snare of the devil. ; 3 John 12 Demetrius hath good report of all men, and of the truth itself: yea, and we also bear record; and ye know that our record is true.)
