The Bridge Tract

After another look at this tract I have to say I was mistaken. It's very well illustrated and perhaps the best at that of any tract. I bought myself a pack of them and have used them to mail out to individuals (not churches or abortion centers) but individuals. Anyone here use this tract and what are your thoughts? I really do not have any gripes about it. Produced by Detroit Seminary a IFB Calvinistic place of education.

I could suggest they produce a ESV and NIV version but that's okay as the NASB is good enough. I like the alternative to the KJV and let me tell you that Fundamentalist usually do not produce tracts in other versions.

Name the movie from 1984 on my mind at this time and I will tell you.
"Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom". (Great movie and growing up this was the last one we saw as a family before my father died). "The Natural" might have been better...in a more serious kind of way.

Or were you thinking "Footloose".

Evan- My point was that, paired with your money troubles and your large tract collection, perhaps you should have used what you have instead of spending money on more.

Like most of Evan's threads, the Never Ending Story. *laugh*

No mention of the resurrection???? I don't know that there can be a gospel presentation without a focus on the resurrection of Christ, much less without even a mention.

From the previous thread for those wondering what this yammering is about:
New guy in our church and he likes to do evangelism and wants to go with me. I do not like his tracts and think that the Bridge Tract and any from that ministry lead people to easy believism. He also uses the sinners prayer and is no Calvinist.
Any tract from this ministry is "easy-believism" or in that direction.

As I have said about 50 times I am WOTM P not WOTM O.

But you have said that you have to preach the law in order for people to be saved and this doesn't have the law and you say this is one of the best tracts you've ever seen. I don't understand how you can have both views.

Wrong thats not what I said. I said that the law convicts people of sin and is the best way to do that, but its not the only way.

Disagreeing with you, pointing out flaws in thinking, and/or correcting errors is NOT "attacking." Perhaps the way in which it's done can be emotionally hurtful; but when you expose yourself publicly, you must know that in a sinful world, such things are gonna happen. You have two choices: complain to the moderators, and if they don't see things your way, go somewhere else; or toughen up and quit responding to any taunts, which only gives them encouragement to continue.

Knew a guy in Kansas; we'd play pranks on him, and each time, he'd get all huffy and loudly declare how he was gonna get us back. Which only made it more interesting to us to play more pranks on him, and see if he'd actually follow through and do something; or if he was just full of hot air.

You remind me a lot of him.
