These 28 presentations have been created to make the SEALING TOUCH Doctrinal Memory Cards the lesson material in evangelism. The programs come with a special prayer that youth leaders will motivate young people to make the presentations before an audience in their homes, in worship services, or in mini-crusades.
The memorized Word converts, cleanses sin, empowers prayer life, conveys the Holy Spirit and love for Jesus, implants the truth, and sends forth witnesses. This power working in the hearts of our young people could bring a fulfillment of these words from Messages to Young People 196: “With such an army of workers as our youth, rightly trained, might furnish, how soon the message of a crucified, risen, and soon-coming Saviour might be carried to the whole world!”
To use the SEALING TOUCH Memory Cards in evangelism is in agreement with the subject matter of the disciples’ sermons. After their anointing by the Holy Spirit on the Day of Pentecost, “They that were scattered abroad went every where preaching the Word” (Acts 8:4). Many other verses in the book of Acts give the same message: “And the Word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.” “They spake the Word of God with power.” “The Word of God increased.” “The Word of God grew and multiplied.”
The theme of the disciples’ discourses was the Word of God. SEALING TOUCH is copying their method to achieve the same success. In each lesson, the motto is emphasized: “Seal your heart to Jesus with Scripture memory.” The truths of the Word truly seal the heart of the believer, enabling him/her to stand firmly for Jesus, even if it costs the life. Understanding of Biblical truths builds a hedge about the life that cannot be torn down–neither in good times nor in times of persecution. Bibles may be destroyed, but the Word in the mind cannot be taken.
Jesus commands His people in Joel 2:11: “And the Lord shall utter His voice before His army: for His camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth His Word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?” The signs on every side proclaim the news that Jesus is coming soon. He commands His people to execute the Word, because the power of the Word will fully equip for the work.
Each lesson has an approximate 25-minute script that anyone of any age can present. The first section of each lesson is an introduction to the subject of the study. In the next section, the verses are read and the speaker talks about the meaning of each verse. Discussion of the inspirational paragraph on each study makes the subject matter for the closing. The studies are sold in a three-ring binder for $29.95.
To make the meetings more effective, it is wise to place a SEALING TOUCH Memory Book in each person’s hands. They can be purchased very inexpensively for groups. To help the listeners enter into the study, the participants can place the verses in their Bibles in a chain-reference marking plan and color the verses according to a color chart. The marking plan and color chart are explained in the introduction to the scripts, and can be copied to give to each participant.
The presentations inspire the leaders and the listeners alike to pledge their lives anew to the high and holy purpose of presenting the Three Angels’ Messages to the world to prepare for the Second Coming. Bible memorization, with obedience to the Words learned, is one of the most powerful activities that can be practiced to transform lives.
