A Note From Dr. Wood

I am excited about this month’s issue of the “Toolbox.”  I do not know that we have had an issue yet that has as many helps, encouragements and motivation for walking with God, winning precious souls to Christ and doing the work of God.

These are the greatest days that we have known in the ministry.  Our meetings in the US have been absolutely wonderful.  Our reports from around the world continue to grow in results, souls coming to Christ and overall excitement for the provision and enablement of our God.  I encourage you to become very familiar with the ministry of the WITNESS Project—the way to do this is to Click Here to view the video presentation that is on our website online.

I am also excited about the privilege of having a “live” message in the toolbox each issue.  Please “check it out.”  I trust that this month’s message will be a blessing and help.  Remember: you can help us spread the Gospel, encourage soul winners and touch America by forwarding the Soul Winner’s Toolbox to everyone on your email list.  God is truly blessing—thank you for being a special part of this entire ministry and the thrust to get the Gospel out here in America and worldwide.

Found Wanting

R. A. Torrey (1856-1928) was a Congregational evangelist, teacher, author, born in Hoboken, New Jersey. He was educated in Yale University and Divinity School. After a period of skepticism he trusted in Jesus Christ as Saviour. Soon after he pastored in Ohio and then in Minnesota. In 1889 Dwight L. Moody called Torrey to Chicago to become the superintendant of the school which became known as the Moody Bible Institute. He also served as pastor of the Chicago Avenue Church, now the Moody Memorial Church, for twelve years. Between 1902-1906 Torrey and Charles Alexander conducted a very fruitful evangelistic outreach in Australia, Tasmania, New Zealand, India, China, Japan, Britain, Germany, Canada, and the USA. From 1912-1924 Torrey was dean of the Bible Institute of Los Angeles during which he pastored the Church of the Open Door. His remaining years involved holding Bible conferences, teaching at the Moody Bible Institute, and other endevours. (Adapted from "The Wycliffe Biographical Dictionary of the Church, Elgin S. Moyer, Moody Press, 1982)

Any one who loves the drama should read the Bible, for the Bible is the most dramatic book that was ever written. There is nothing to compare with it in Eschylus or Sophocles or Euripides among the ancients, or in Shakespeare among the moderns, in striking situations, in graphic delineation, and in startling denouement.

One of the most intensely interesting and at the same time suggestive scenes in the Bible is that described in Daniel 5. -- Belshazzar's feast. Belshazzar was not the supreme King of Babylon. Nabonidus, his father, was king, and had associated him with himself on the throne; Belshazzar was second ruler in the kingdom. The critics used to tell us there never was such a king as Belshazzar; but Sir William Rawlinson dug up a tablet from Nabonidus himself, on which he speaks of his son Belsharuzzar; and again the critics, as so often before, were brought to grief by the discoveries of modern archeology.

The Tool of Security

From: June Wood, Trenton, GA , Gospel Recording Artist, Member of Soul Winning Club, Registered at LBU

I promise you our house wakes up at bedtime.  When I’m preparing dinner, watching TV, reading or studying my LBU Bible course, I don’t hear any unusual sounds or bumps in the night.  But, just let me turn off the TV or Moody radio, turn out the lights and go to bed and the whole house wakes up.

There are sounds I can’t even describe.  We have crickets so loud it sounds like a low flying small plane – the air conditioners hum and cough all night – the water is running (loud) in the pipes.  It sounds like golf balls are hitting the side of the house.  I do live on a golf course but those sounds should be in the daylight hours, wouldn’t you think?

Humor with a Message

A mom was concerned about her kindergarten son walking to school. He didn't want his mother to walk with him. She wanted to give him the feeling that he had some independence but yet know that he was safe.

So she had an idea of how to handle it. She asked a neighbor if she would please follow him to school in the mornings, staying at a distance, so he probably wouldn't notice her. She said that since she was up early with her toddler anyway, it would be a good way for them to get some exercise as well, so she agreed.

The next school day....

Q & A

Question:  Simplicity: “I’m afraid that a question will be asked that’s too hard for me to answer,    therefore I am afraid I’ll be a stumbling block to the person to whom I’m witnessing...”

Answer: So writes a precious lady in Iowa who loves the Lord and has a burden to win the lost.  I don’t know if I have ever seen one statement that sums up the fear that is shared by so many Christians
who come to me with questions about personal soul winning.

Leading people to Christ is a joy. It is the most rewarding work a Christian can do. And yet we must realize that Satan will use every trick and intimidation to keep us away from this spiritual
endeavor.

Soul Winning Testimony

From: Jeremiah W. Moss, Assoc. Pastor and Soul winning Director, Calvary Baptist Church, Nacogdoches, Texas

An individual cannot explicate how important the work of soulwinning really is.  Throughout the ages, men and women have sacrificed their lives to share the Gospel with a lost and dying world.  Threeyears ago, I was sitting at a table with Dr. David Wood having a casual conversation over a cup of coffee and I asked him about our responsibility for soul winning.  He said something which had a profound impact on my life, He described, “a soul winner is an individual who is literally standing at the gate of Hell reaching over and snatching lost people from an eternity in torment.”  People’s souls are at stake.  Friends, family members, co-workers, classmates and neighbors are depending on born again believer’s to have compassion to share with them the love of Christ and the salvation they can have through Him. 

The Twenty- first century is in need of a generation to rise up and grab hold of the magnitude of soul winning.  Thom Rainer, from his book Surprising Insights from the Unchurched and Proven Ways to Reach Them, writes

Emphasize Soul Winning

From: Daryl Miller, Maranatha Baptist Church

Just recently we had a great week of meetings at our church and I was dropping off Dr. David Wood at the airport. On the way to the airport we were talking about the importance of not only emphasizing soul winning, but continuing to emphasize soul winning, even over the years. I was thankful that Dr. Wood commented that is what we had done here at Maranatha Baptist church. That even over the years we have continued to have an emphasis on soul winning. You can do a whole lot of things right, it’s important to do church administration right, to do Sunday school right, it’s important to, of course, preach what your are supposed to preach. It’s important to do everything in church right. But you know what? It’s very, very, very important to do soul winning right,....

A TEXT NOTE FROM
THE PHILIPPINES:

Brother Joey Sauco, our Southeast Asia Director for the WITNESS Project sent the following text message—I thought it would be a blessing to you:

“If you own a Bible you are blessed—about one third of the world does not have access to even one Bible.  If you have food on your table, clothes on your back and a roof over your head you are rich.”

U.S. To Help Rebuild City
Of Babylon In Iraq

From: Joel Rosenburg

http://www.joelrosenberg.com/images/joel.jpg Largely overlooked by the Western news media over the past few weeks was an enormously significant story. The government of Iraq is moving forward with plans to protect the archaeological remains of the ancient City of Babylon, in preparation for building a modern city of Babylon. The project, originally started by the late Saddam Hussein, is aimed eventually at attracting scores of "cultural tourists" from all over the world to see the glories of Mesopotamia's most famous city. What's more, the Obama Administration is contributing $700,000 towards "The Future of Babylon Project," through the State Department's budget.
