Subject: The Jesus Crutch

     Do I have something COOL for YOU!  In the high school that I
use to attend, a group of "born again" students have been handing
out pamphlets in an attempt to convert the masses.  First they
handed out their "God loves you" pamphlets, but that did not
work, so they handed these new pamphets out.  I would like to
share with you this LOVING pamphlet.

DEATH:
It happen's EVERY day!
-------

WHAT IF YOU DIED TODAY!
Yes YOU, not somebody else!
     Even while reading this tract, you could be having a slight
pain in your chest or head; but WITHIN A FEW HOURS, YOU WILL BE
DEAD of a heart attack or brain hemorrhage.  But you're thinking:
"That'll never happen to me."
  "Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow.  For what is
you life?  It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time,
and then vanisheth away." James 4:14.
     You might be in good health, but ON YOUR WAY HOME TONIGHT
YOU WILL BE KILLED in a car accident.  Remember how shocked you
were, the last time you heard about someone you knew that was
killed in a wreck?  They never thought that death would come so
suddenly to them did they?  Maybe THESE WILL BE THE LAST WORDS
THAT YOU WILL EVER READ!

YOU CAN'T ESCAPE DEATH!
  "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this
the judgment:" Hebrews 9:27.
     Now maybe you're thinking: "If I would die today, I'm ready
to go; after all, I've never done anything really bad.  I don't
believe that a merciful God would send me to hell."
  "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;"
Romans 3:23.  "For the wages of sin is death;" the abominable,
and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters,
and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth
with fire and brimstone: which is the second death." Revelation
21:8.
     According to God's Word, no matter how good you are, YOU
DESERVE TO BURN IN THE LAKE OF FIRE FOR EVER AND EVER!

GOD HAS GIVEN YOU A SAVIOR.
  "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8 "...but the gift of
God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. "Romans 6:23b.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son,
that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have
everlasting life." John 3:16.
     Now stop a second, and read that last verse again.  How does
the Bible say that you get everlasting life?
NOT BY TRUSTING IN SOME CHURCH OR SAINT!
  "Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none
other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be
saved." Acts 4:12.
     NOT BY DOING GOOD WORKS!
  "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of
yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man
should boast." Ephesians 2:8-9

YOU GET EVERLASTING LIFE BY COMPLETELY TRUSTING JESUS.
     The Bible proves this in John 3:18 and John 3:36, John 6:40,
Acts 8:37, Acts 16:31, and Romans 10:9.
     Listen, why don't you admit to God that you are a hellbound
sinner.  That you are willing to turn from your sinful life, and
accept the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Saviour.  If you
will do that right now with a sincere heart, God's Word says that
you can know for sure that you have eternal life.
  "There things have I written unto you that believe on the name
of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life,
and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God." I John
5:13.  "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall
be saved." Romans 10:13.

Do it now, don't put it off another minute!  THIS IS NOT BY
COINCIDENCE THAT YOU ARE READING THIS TRACT.  God planned it for
you and not somebody else.  This could be YOUR LAST WARNING!
"...PREPARE TO MEET THY GOD..."  Amos 4:12b.

(check box one)
 * WILL YOU ACCEPT JESUS?
     Jesus, I now admit that I am a sinner, going to hell, and
need YOU as MY SAVIOR.  I now cease to rely on MYSELF, MY church,
MY religion, or anything else I might do.  I now, with YOUR help
will turn from the sinful life I now lead.  I NOW ACCEPT YOU as
MY Saviour.  I now put MY faith in the BLOOD that you shed on the
cross to pay for all MY sins and to keep ME from going to hell.
Thank You LORD JESUS.
     Remember salvation does not depend on feelings or an
emotional experience.  It is based on what GOD HAS PROMISED IN
HIS WORD.  "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord
shall be saved." Romans 10:13.

 * WILL YOU REJECT JESUS?
  "...he that believeth not is CONDEMNED ALREADY, because he hath
not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." John
3:18b.

Please send this tract to us to let us know that after reading
it, you have decided to trust Jesus Christ as your Savior.
