Good and bad tracts at Territory Days 2010

Saturday, May 29th, 2010

GOOD TRACTS. We had a great day of witnessing at Territory Days here in Colorado Springs.  While there we passed out over 2000 gospel tracts and shared the gospel a few times.  Actually sharing the gospel verbally is tough in a setting like this, however, as it is busy and NOISY.  Oh well, the gospel was proclaimed anyway, even in written form in a tract.

BAD TRACTS.  Now while down there, someone gave me a bad “gospel tract”.  A picture of part of it is below.  Now, the title of the tract shows how bogus it is.  NO ONE knows the hour or time of Christ return (Matthew 24:36)

There is some truth in these tracts, but just a little poison in something like this is enough to kill..

This is the reason some reject giving out tracts, but don’t let that stop you.  God will use your faithfulness to save those who believe.

BTW..check out the radio station in Pueblo, CO.. K FRY.

Turn or burn baby…not good.


Big hug

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

Connie and I attended a booth at Territory Days here in Colorado Springs a few years ago.  We handed out water, gospel tracts and shared the gospel with hundreds of festival people.  One of the guys Connie shared with REALLY appreciated her sharing with him. Of course, they guy might have had a few beers or something, but he still was into it.

The point that I am trying to make is that you can share the gospel and not be a jerk.  Now, some people will not like it, but most of the folks we talk to shake our hands, or give us a hug(maybe not quite a big hug as this though).

I have also heard lately from some folks how you cannot share the gospel with someone until you have a long lasting trusting relationship with them.  WHY?  You can have a relationship with someone in 5 minutes enough to share the gospel.  This is what Jesus did with the Woman at the Well.  The story you are telling is His story, not yours.

This picture is also getting me fired up for the upcoming holiday parades and festivals.  Should be a great year to be “fishers of men(and women)”.
