May I let my voice be a clarion call. I will use these words for justice. I will use these words for truth. And humour.

I kind of collect things like this...

Hi Everyone-

Just the other day, I found one of these laying on the side of the sidewalk, kind of hacked-up, so I grabbed it with the intent of giving it a home among the other religious tracts I've found, but its pretty hacked up, so I'm just going to retype all of the text, with no commentary.

Front:
TIME IS

RUNNING
OUT...

Back:
THE PURPOSE OF THIS FLYER
[I'm translating the rest into lower-case as a goodwill gesture]

Is not to advertise religion;
It is to express to you a message
of hope and love. Jesus loves
you so much that he died on
a cross for you and for this reason
he is very concerned about
your life. He knows how you
feel inside and he wants you to
experience his love and peace.
Nothing is more important to Him. [I assume a capital 'H.']
------------------------
The Bible say's:[sic]
Call upon me in the day of trouble;
I will deliver you and you will honor me.
Psalms 50:15
------------------------
What to do to be saved:
1. Admit that you are a sinner.
2. Be willing to turn away from your sins.
3. Believe that Jesus Christ died for you.
4. Ask him in prayer to enter and guide your life.
5. Get plugged into a bible believing church.

oh I always love how they have to put in that last little bit, that to get to heaven you must go to church. fear in advertising - and we wonder where our government learned it.
