Witnessing With Tracts

Do we realize the extraordinary dynamic of the printed page? Dr. Goodell, of the American board of missions, passing through Nicodemia in 1832, having no time to stop, left with a stranger a copy of a gospel paper. Seventeen years later he visited Nicodemia, and found a Christian community of more than 200 members. Dr. Griffith John tells of eight churches in China reared by tracts alone. Dr Bartle Frere, traveling in India, was amazed to find a small town in which the idol shrines and temples were empty, but the townsfolk professed the Christian faith. It transpired that some...

Success in any kind of witnessing is simply sharing Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit and leaving the results to God. Always remember that there is absolutely no substitute for prayer.

Let us not forget that the Lord wants to use me to bring those whom I touch in life to know Jesus as Saviour. Every soul that...

It's a wonderful thing that the story of the grace of God can be compressed into a few hundred words and printed on a piece of paper. It's even more wonderful when you consider that masses of people will not listen to a Christian broadcast on radio or TV. Neither will they enter a church or discuss spiritual things with a Christian. You've probably heard the common reply, "I don't believe in discussing politics or religion." Did you know that millions of people have this attitude? Multitudes cannot be reached by any other method than gospel tracts. Why? They have...

The following are 50 responses to a Moments With The Book poll asking tract buyers how they have used tracts in the past. If you have any other ways that you have used tracts, feel free to send them to us. Maybe we'll add them to the list. You might not agree with all of the items below (we certainly wouldn't use some of them), but hopefully they will give you some ideas of how you can use the "silent messengers" where you live. No matter where or how you choose to distribute tracts, we have these suggestions: 1. Obey...
