Members phkrause Posted May 6, 2023 Members Share Posted May 6, 2023 More than 100 volunteers went door to door to distribute 29,000 copies of The Great Controversy, Thrive magazine, and invitational flyers to the Detroit, Michigan, USA, neighborhoods surrounding five Adventist churches from April 11 to 15. The door-to-door effort resulted in more than 430 Bible study contacts. https://adventistreview.org/news/great-controversy-distribution-in-michigan-leads-to-more-than-430-bible-studies/ Quote phkrause By the decree enforcing the institution of the papacy in violation of the law of God, our nation will disconnect herself fully from righteousness. When Protestantism shall stretch her hand across the gulf to grasp the hand of the Roman power, when she shall reach over the abyss to clasp hands with spiritualism, when, under the influence of this threefold union, our country shall repudiate every principle of its Constitution as a Protestant and republican government, and shall make provision for the propagation of papal falsehoods and delusions, then we may know that the time has come for the marvelous working of Satan and that the end is near. {5T 451.1} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Gregory Matthews Posted May 6, 2023 Moderators Share Posted May 6, 2023 The phrase "430 Bible study contacts," is not defined. It is open to question. In the past, the mass distribution of The Great Controversy has been ineffective. I documented a case which I as recall it cost into 6-figures and resulted in one baptism. In any case, several examples have had no known baptisms result. We have much better methods of spending money given for evangelism. I wonder why we think that the general public will read a book that they will not purchase, in this television age. Let those who will purchase it do so. phkrause and Kevin H 2 Quote Gregory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
