$haring the Good New$

Sharing the gospel is like giving away million dollar bills, but it could get you in trouble. It seems that this fellow was handing out tracts that looked like real money and had his tracts confiscated. I have seen a lot of tracts over the years. None are more attention getting than those that have something to do with money. Money talks! It is the vocabulary of our culture.

But the real value of the tract is in the message. There was a 160 word gospel presentation printed on the bogus bills along with several disclaimers that the tract was not "legal tender." Recipients of those bills would be fortunate to know that, if acted upon, the message is worth more than a million dollars.

I came to Christ when a Gideon handed me a New Testament as I was swearing into the Armed Forces. At the time, it cost about 38 cents to print an entire N.T. It has been priceless in my life ever since. What kind of witnessing tools have you been exposed to? What kind of witness did it take to make you aware of your need for Jesus?
