    My point is that this guy didn't even ask me if I was a Christian before he stuck the track in my face.....there was zero human interaction. So is this how your attempting to emulate Christ? By handing out tracts?

    Do you think it is fair to judge the use of tracks based on how one single person did it with you?

    What's the matter....cant you give me your own definition of it? After all, you are the Reverend ....and I'm the mere seeker for truth. In any event, I eagerly await your scholarly interpertations and embellishments.

    so human interaction only means communicating with words?

    I went to an Arbies a few weeks ago, I handed them a box of donuts and some tracts... but I was heading to church so I did not have time to converse, and since they were at work neither did they.

    Do you believe in situations like this, Jesus would not use a gospel tract? do you think he would just let them stay on there way to hell because it isn't possible to interact with them and take them away from their job?

    Come on EWF...

    I'm sure the early church would have utilized tracts had they access to them in their time.

    I mean... The N.T. epistles basically are gospel tracts..

    Romans is basically one gospel tract.

    if people thought like you back then, we wouldn't even have most of our New Testament. Paul and other writers used letters and text to communicate the truths of God to eachother when it was not possible for them to actually see them face to face.. What I and many others do with Gospel tracts is very much the same

    So you don't think the Apostle Paul was serious when we wrote the book of Romans, or 1st and 2nd Corinthians, Galatians, Colossians, Ephesians, 1st and 2nd Timothy, Philemon, Titus, or 1st and 2nd Thessalonians?

    if this is really how you think, then throw out half your New Testament because the apostle Paul wasn't serious..

    I don't think it is a very fair comparison to passing out tracts and men being inspired by HS to write the New Testament.

    The NT is not a string of tracts. The vast majority was written to believers. Paul wrote to the Saints at Rome, and said it was his desire to preach the gospel to them.

    And the gospel is not at all a "turn or burn" message, prevalent in tracts

    Tracts are evangelism for those who cant talk to people.

    Luk 13:27 But he will say, 'I tell you, I do not know where you come from. Depart from me, all you workers of evil!'
    Luk 13:28 In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth,.......

    Me and Jordan disagree on Calvinism but agree very much on evangelism.
