What time did the sinners prayer come from?

[JonC]

Yep the Calvinist brigade waits to come along and run through the entire thread to see how many posts they can disagree with. Then they go back over to their other forum and gossip about people on this board. They brag to each other when they think they have made some headway in defeating arguments or changing people's minds. They are quite proud of themselves.

Ah, yes, the puppy pack. (all bark and no bite, but annoyingly loud enough to be disruptive).

The "puppy pack" that right there is funny. I don't care who you are. That is just funny.

At the risk of being called condescending (not by you, Evan, you seem to be an honest guy) did you go out with another to the fest (I would think it helpful to have another along side) and how did it go (were any responsive beyond taking the tract)?

Yes to the first and yes to the second. We found at least one person that wanted to go beyond the gospel tract. Sadly most did not and even one person flipped off and cussed us out. However no one torched any tracts in front of us this year.

Todd said that it was about 1850 that people started using the sinners prayer

Would you provide us an example of a 'sinner's prayer', so we know what exactly you are talking about?

Then it was worth it (that one person wanted to go beyond the tract). How do you get your tracts (do you purchase them or does your church)?

That is the key, Jerome. We could be dealing with entirely different ideas of the "sinners prayer". I'd add, not only an example of the prayer but how the prayer is used (e.g., "if you prayed this then you are saved" vs. "if you prayed this prayer then we have people up front to talk to you").

You're just mad because I got rid of you...the runt of the litter. Now THAT right there is funny!

Nah...I'm not mad at all. I knew we were different breeds. You just ain't my kinda DoG...dawg.

I think the complaint is that you only see (or at least treat) "these brothers" as brothers.

A leash should do the trick.

Avoid his tracts. Get the ones I have mentioned.

Besides how effective would JOJ's tracts be on the people that I witnessed too on Saturday? You need to buy tracts targeted at them.

Why would they be less effective than the ones you used?

This thread is about the sinners prayer - why are we talking about tracts?
