“You must bring a lot of happiness into this world,” said the young businessman with tears of joy and gratitude in his eyes. He had just prayed with Bill Bright and received Christ as his Savior and Lord. Now he was eager to take the Four Spiritual Laws booklet home so he could introduce his wife to Christ.

Bring about the obedience of faith for the sake of his name among all the nations. Romans 1:5

The late Bill Bright, cofounder of Campus Crusade for Christ, created the evangelistic Christian tract, The Four Spiritual Laws, in 1952. Approximately one billion copies have been distributed in all of the major languages. Millions of people in many countries have prayed to receive Jesus as Lord through the direct, simple presentation of the gospel contained in this little yellow booklet.

Jesus said, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.” (Mark 16:15) As a follower of Christ, you have the privilege of bringing eternal joy to people everywhere you go when you share His good news. Jesus is the only One who can change people. So pray for opportunities every day to introduce others to Him. You can help change the world – one person at a time!

Campus Crusade for Christ; Bill Bright – Clothed in Christ

“For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves in Christ” (Galatians 3:27, NAS).

You may be surprised, as I was, at the result of our personal surveys having to do with church members and salvation.

Such surveys indicate that somewhere between 50 and 90% of all church members are not sure of their salvation. Like Martin Luther, John Wesley and many others who became mighty ambassadors for Christ, some spend many years “serving God” before they experience the assurance and reality of their salvation.

The pastor of a large fashionable church of 1,500 members once reacted negatively when I shared these statistics, doubting that such large percentages of church members lacked assurance of their salvation.

He decided personally to survey his own congregation at the church where he had served as senior pastor for 15 years. To his amazement and shock, more than 75% of the membership indicated they were not sure of their salvation.

The following Sunday, the pastor arranged for the Four Spiritual Laws booklet, which contains the distilled essence of the gospel, to be distributed to each member of the congregation.

For his sermon he read the contents of the booklet aloud, as the congregation followed him, reading from their own copies of the Four Laws. Then he invited all who wished to receive Christ as their Savior and Lord to read aloud with him the prayer contained in the booklet. Almost the entire congregation joined in the prayer audibly. As a result the church was changed, because changed individuals in sufficient numbers equal a changed church, a changed community and a changed nation.

Have you clothed yourself in Christ?

Bible Reading: Galatians 4:4-7

TODAY’S ACTION POINT:  I will not take for granted that I have found faith in Christ simply because I belong to a church, nor will I assume that all church members have assurance of their salvation. I shall encourage all who are not sure to receive Christ and be clothed in His righteousness.
