Bible Verse

Acts 5:42 - And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.

Inspiration

1 Testimonies, p. 321. “In this fearful time, just before Christ is to come the second time, God's faithful preachers will have to bear a still more pointed testimony than was borne by John the Baptist. A responsible, important work is before them; and those who speak smooth things, God will not acknowledge as His shepherds. A fearful woe is upon them.

“WE SHOULD IMPROVE EVERY SUCH OPPORTUNITY AS THAT PRESENTED BY THE ST. LOUIS FAIR. AT ALL SUCH GATHERINGS THERE SHOULD BE PRESENT MEN WHOM GOD CAN USE. LEAFLETS CONTAINING THE LIGHT OF PRESENT TRUTH SHOULD BE SCATTERED AMONG THE PEOPLE LIKE THE LEAVES OF AUTUMN. TO MANY WHO ATTEND THESE GATHERINGS THESE LEAFLETS WOULD BE AS THE LEAVES OF THE TREE OF LIFE, WHICH ARE FOR THE HEALING OF THE NATIONS.”
— EVANGELISM, PG. 36

This month’s emphasis is Protestant Reformation! October 31st is the anniversary of the beginning of the Protestant Reformation. It was started more than 500 years ago, in a large way by Martin Luther posting his 95 Theses in Wittenberg, Germany. Those 95 Theses were reprinted and distributed all over. The goal this month is to distribute 95 tracts!

Conversation Question: “Have you or anyone you know ever had a supernatural experience (e.g., believed they saw a ghost, had an encounter with an angel, etc.)?”
