Dear ones in Christ,
When the world was ruled by Rome, the nations suffered under the leadership of insane Caesars. Madness, cruelty, and corruption were everywhere because Satan had placed them on the throne. It was at this time that the Lord Jesus came from heaven to bring light into a very dark world.
He never spoke of revolt against those in power. When the Lord was tempted by Satan, you must remember that Satan was given the world`s systems when Adam fell. Satan offered Jesus the kingdoms of this world if he would worship him. Jesus replied, "Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve," (Matt 4: 9-10).
The Devil, as the god of this world, has the right to give wealth and power to whomever he will if they will worship him. Just look who serves him. World leaders are into the occult: dictators, presidents, popes, international bankers, rock stars. The movers and shakers all have sold their souls to the Devil for riches and power, only to be destroyed. This has gone on ever since Adam fell. Nothing changes.
What about today? The Caesars still control and rule from Rome —inside the Vatican, dressed as popes. Satan knows what he is doing. He is ridiculing the Lord Jesus, blocking the gospel, and the darkness is everywhere, getting the world ready for the anti-Christ.
Jesus told us: "Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature," (Mark 16:15). We didn`t do very well. But we can still fight back and give the gospel to those in the darkness.
With gospel tracts you can still spread light and win souls. Young people have no idea who Jesus is and that He is coming again. Remember, God sees us and will judge us at the judgment seat of Christ. Satan knows his time is short and is on the offensive. Do tracts work? You bet they do!
The Lord wants to give you a soul-winners crown if you bring light to those on their way to hell. You can do that with Chick gospel tracts. Join us in this great work.
Your brother in Christ,
Jack Chick
