W.W.J.D.?

Posted on by

Eventually it dawned on me  that it was a great tool for Personal Evangelism. But that happened only today! And of course a good reminder for Personal Evangelism as well.

I am talking about the wallet my friend showed me in Mangonui. That was actually some time ago.

But I am still thinking about his purse with the four letters W. W. J. D. ? written on it.

My friend did not only tell me that the letters are short for WHAT WOULD JESUS DO? , but that there is also a book with the same title.

Whenever the owner of such a wallet pays for something WHAT WOULD JESUS DO? comes to his or her mind for sure.

Yes, what would the Lord Jesus Christ do?

You know the answer!

Something clicked with me this morning!

Something clicked with me this morning.

I was reading the evening portion in the book “MORNING AND EVENING – Daily Readings” by C. H. Spurgeon. He is expounding verse 23 from Mark chapter nine. P1090139Today is September 23. In Mark 9:23 it says:  ” ‘If you can’? said Jesus. “Everything is possible for him who believes.”

All of a suddden a building here in town came to my mind, the building where I did my first computer course. The building is no longer in use, but the signs are still there. The building is on the main road and I don’t know how many times I have read what it says on the signs:

“Multiskill – Everything’s possible”

“Everything’s possible”

The Lord Jesus Christ says: “EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE……FOR HIM WHO BELIEVES.”

Do you have the book by C.H.  Spurgeon mentioned above?

Read what he says there!

There is also a picture – two people with happy faces running to a teller of the Westpac Bank. The teller has a sign with LOANS written on it.

“DID YOU KNOW?”

“Most people in your church congregation own a Bible, but not many of them may actually use it.”

I read that in the “WarCry”, the magazine of the Salvation Army. (18. 07. 2009)

On the same page is also an article by Commissioner Don Bell, in which he says: “The Bible is one of the keys to spiritual growth and vitality.”
