A SIMPLE EXPLANATION OF CHRISTIANITY is the perfect title for Luther's Small Catechism. Being in color, and beautifully illustrated (making it appealing to children and adults alike), this tract is great for evangelism, the perfect travel companion, and great for personal study.
To state it plainly, A SIMPLE EXPLANATION OF CHRISTIANITY is the most brilliant work CPH has ever made available, not only is it great for personal use, but could very well be THE SINGLE GREATEST WEAPON WIELDED AGAINST THE ENEMY in our culture - and around the world.
This should be produced in the MILLIONS and made available to EVERYONE.
A SIMPLE EXPLANATION OF CHRISTIANITY should be promoted by every LCMS congregation in evangelistic outreach in thier local communities.
How many could be brought to the truth of the Christian Faith and comforted by this little booklet!
Everything necessary to believe in order to be saved is found in this little handbook.
So many errors of the enemy are refuted by its plain testimony of Scriptural truth.
This little booklet is absolutely PERFECT for use in street ministry when telling people the Good News of Jesus Christ and inviting them to church. (Which every one of us should be doing, by the way - and often at that! Just remember, The Great Commission applies to each and every one of us - and "all nations" includes your community! The mission field we are called to also includes your city! I fear too many Lutherans have forgotten this simple and plain truth regarding evangelism.)
Just think of how many Christians don't even know the basics of the Faith. Just think of how many have been taught incorrectly on so many important issues that this little handbook addresses. This booklet is the perfect tool for informing a very un-informed culture - and by God's grace, radically transform lives, but most importantly, this little booklet clearly teaches the Gospel - and that's why it should be handed out and made available to EVERYONE.
(We are the Church of the Reformation! Luther never earning a penny from his multitudinous published works - and thereby transformed the world. Therefore, I must ask: Why is Jehovah's Witness material more prevalent than A SIMPLE EXPLANATION OF CHRISTIANITY? WE HAVE A PUBLISHING COMPANY, for goodness sake! May we, together with CPH make every effort to remedy that situation! Amen.)
And so, in summary, A SIMPLE EXPLANATION OF CHRISTIANITY can be used as a very powerful and effective evangelical tool that every Lutheran should have to hand out to friends family and neighbors as they tell them the Good News of Jesus Christ! May it be so. Amen.
I encourage EVERYONE to spread the Good News to everyone you know with this powerful evangelical tract.
Send those seeds out into the breeze! :)
