Tract Insert in English (vaya aqui para Español)

Tracts as a means of witnessing to others

Tracts are usually a small folded up handout we give people or leave in public places for others to find and read that give a spiritual message to enhance their coming to Jesus.  Using tracts is a subtle inevasive way to evangelize and spread the news of the gospel.

There are other tract resources available such as Chick Tracts  at 
http://www.chick.com/catalog/tractlist.asp which are very readable cartoon tracts and helpful  also. 
Some do have some theological errors  but for most part their tracts are good and the messages are meaningful. Go to www.google.com and put Gospel Tracts in the search line and you will find many resources.

Why tracts? Salvation literature never forgets to make the intended points about the Gospel; never is too busy to do its job; never gets sick or injured; never compromises with the truth; never argues but will always boldly and unashamedly witness to every person, regardless who they are; can be reread by thousands of people over many years in many different places; speaks out its message when it is most convenient and opportune to the recipient of the tract and can be easily verified, if Scripture references are cited in it.

Salvation literature penetrates homes, prisons, hospitals, offices and foreign countries. Though you can't speak a foreign language, you can distribute salvation literature in that language and still be effectively understood for the Gospel's sake. Tracts can be passed on to one person after another and continue to bring forth salvations.

  The problem with short tracts is that they don’t give you a lot of space to leave anything but a short message of interest. And that’s what tracts are all about, to develop enough interest in a person so that he/she will explore God further. But the main message we are trying to reach people with is the salvation of Jesus.

We put together the following which we use as an insert included with all the tracts we hand out or leave laying around for others to find. It brings home the important message of what it’s really all about and how Jesus is our only key to heaven. It fits on the front and back of a half sheet of 81/2 x 11 paper if you use the right type size; 9pt Times New Roman with 1/2” top, bottom and side margins. Fold it in half the long way, then in half again the other direction and it ends up 4 ¼” x 2 ¾” and fits inside the tract the same size just right.  

If you would like a word document of a master page all laid out in the right type size with two sets on the front and a second page with two sets of the backside, send an email to wemaster@heavensfountain.com   and we will send you the two files. Just print them out, copy page 1 on the the frontside, page 2 on the backside, cut the page in half and you have two tract inserts to put into your tracts.

The Bible says there is only one way to heaven.
Jesus said,” I am the way, the truth and the light; no man commeth unto the Father except through me”. John 14:6   Nobody else can save you except Jesus; not Mary, not the saints, not your angel, not your priest or pastor; you can only be saved through Jesus.

Simply put - “If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Messiah Yahshua, and shalt believe in thy heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, though shalt be saved”. Romans 10:9

1. Admit you are a sinner Romans 3:10

2. Be willing to turn away from sin; repent. Acts 17:30

3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you and your sins, was buried and rose from the dead.  Romans 10:9-10

4. Through prayer, invite Jesus into your life to become your personal savior. Rom 10:13

What to pray
Jesus, Yahshua my Messiah, I am a sinner and need forgiveness. I believe that you shed your precious blood and died for my sins at the cross.  I am willing to repent and turn away from my sins. I invite you to come into my heart and life as my personal saviour.  I invite your holy spirit to guide me and help me turn from sin. And I ask this in the name of Yashua the Messiah.  Amen.

If you trust in Jesus, you have just begun a wonderful life with Him.  Read your Bible everyday to get to know him better. Talk to God in prayer everyday. Be full immersion baptized, worship, fellowship and serve with other Christians in a church where Christ is preached and the Bible is the final authority, not man’s doctrines. Spread the good news (the gospel) and witness to others so they also may see heaven. The Apostle James tells us that when a person accepts Jesus Christ as Savior, that person will desire to do the good works for the Lord. We are not saved as a result of doing good works, for that is a work of Grace. However, a saved person will automatically want to do good works because of the heart change manifested in him. This condition is so automatic that, if a person says they are saved but has no desire to do good works, that person needs to examine their heart to see if they are really and genuinely saved. The true plan of salvation is repentance towards God and faith in Christ Jesus (Acts 20:21). We prove our repentance by our deeds (Acts 26:20). The Lord Jesus taught the road to life is "hard" and only a "few" will find it (Mt. 7:13,14, NKJV). Many get saved, but afterwards fall away (Lk. 8:13; Jn. 6:66; 1 Tim. 1:19; etc.). In other words, after initial salvation we must endure to the "end" to enter the kingdom of God and escape the lake of fire (Mt. 10:22; Heb. 3:14; Rev. 2:10,11). Eternal life comes to the repentant the moment such believe on Jesus for salvation (Jn. 3:16; 6:47; 1 Jn. 5:12,13), but beware of the false teaching of once saved always saved (OSAS). According to true grace teaching, eternal life is also a HOPE (Titus 3:7), yet to be REAPED (Gal. 6:8,9) in the AGE TO COME (Mk. 10:30) for only the ones who PERSIST IN DOING GOOD (Rom. 2:7) and DO NOT GROW WEARY AND GIVE UP (Gal. 6:9). If a saved person sows to please his sinful nature he'll die spiritually (Rom. 8:13; Gal. 6:8,9). The prodigal son is a clear example of this (Luke15:24,32). The end result of sin is spiritual death. DO NOT BE DECEIVED by the "once saved, always saved" teachers (James 1:14-16). We must continue to believe (TRUST) on Jesus for our soul's salvation to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus described his "sheep" as his "followers" (John 10:27). James stated that faith without works is "dead" (James 2:17). In conclusion, Jesus successfully destroyed the devil's work (1 John 3:8). He is the resurrected "Lord of glory" (1 Cor. 2:8), before whom every knee will bow and every tongue confess that he is Lord (Phil. 2:9-11). Jesus, Yashua the Messiah, to be technically correct,  has the ONLY name in which salvation is found (Acts 4:12), is the ONLY mediator between God and man (1 Tim. 2:5) and is the judge of the living and the dead (Acts 10:42; 2 Tim. 4:1; 1 Pet. 4:5). We are advised in Scripture to go directly to Him for forgiveness and to TRUST in Him alone for our soul's salvation.
