Missionary bottle evangelism is when you take a Gospel of John, some salvation tracts
in various languages, and some outdated Sunday School literature and place it all inside
of a glass bottle and tightly cork it. It is then placed far from shore in an ocean current
(after it has been prayed over asking God to pilot it to its special destination in His
timing to accomplish His will). Make sure that you have your name and address inside of it
so the bottle finder can write to you.
Why do this? Most of the world has never heard of Jesus Christ even one time. Our Lord's
Great Commission to Christians is to share the gospel with others. This is one way
of doing it.
Why bother? The answer is what all missionaries give to churches before they go abroad
to spread the gospel light to others. Jesus Christ forgives a person of their sins.
After a person has invited Jesus Christ to come to live inside of their heart they are
instructed to give up their evil ways. They are no longer to worship Satan, commit
violent crimes, sexually molest their family members or others, etc. Getting the
gospel message to the lost folks of the world is what its all about.
