Passing Out Gospel Literature to Reach the Lost

Passing Out Gospel Literature to Reach the Lost by Keith Cook

"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:" 1 Peter 3:15

You can share your faith by passing out good, quality information about salvation and other Biblical themes. You can also pass out information and invitation leaflets that invites people to events and church services.

Why pass out literature.

When you travel around the world, or even down the street, God can use you to help reach someone with the message of Christ. Because of language and time factors it may not always be possible to present a clear presentation of the Gospel. One way to witness in these kinds of situations is with literature.

The printed page can go where you cannot. Many pieces of literature are read and reread many times. People pass the piece along and also can take it with them after you are gone. By combining the written word with the personal touch many lives are changed for Jesus' sake.

One of our recent team members told me that he was saved because someone handed him a gospel tract as he was going into a bar. At first he laughed it off but he put the literature in his pocket. Later that night he was down on his knees asking Jesus to come into his life.

There was no preacher present and no church aisle to walk down. There was no choir singing, "Just as I am." The only one there was Jesus.

God had used an obedient Christian to get the message out. Of the hundreds of pieces of literature passed out that day possibly only one person made a life changing decision, but what was that one life worth? To that young man it was worth everything.
