The Greatest Evangelism Tool Ever
You've told unbelievers about hell...to no avail.
You've described the court scene, where God announces the verdict and judgment and Jesus gets up to pay for it...no dice.
You've pleaded with them that if they've ever told a lie or looked in lust, then they are a "sinner"...nadda.
Well, that's all about to change. We've waited for centuries for just the right angle, just the right trick, just the right analogy to get people to understand what it means to follow Christ, and why it is a matter of life or death. Paul insisted that he wasn't using clever techniques or dressing up the gospel message in any way, but that was then. That might have worked in the ancient Mediterranean world, but in 21st century America, and we need a gimmick, a hook.
So here it is. The greatest evangelism tool ever thought up. If this doesn't get all your Pagan friends to convert, then we might as well give up the task.
Quick, forward this to all your Christian brothers and sisters. And let them know that Costco has the best price in town on pickles (in bulk). And you can pick up a nice battery connection at the Home Depot.
Hit the streets, people! We've got souls to save!!
Grace and Peace,
Raffi

Thanks for the heads-up comment on my Blog (http://chiefshepherd.net). I really like the demonstration and I added the clip to my Christian Videos Page at http://chiefshepherd.net/videos/videos-christian/
You should post a warning:
"Warning: This Video Kills Brine Cells!"
<<< ducks in anticipation of thrown fruit>>>
Thanks Raffi! I watched this video at home and three people walking by the house overheard it and were saved! One of them was a talking pelican!
I also would like to point out that this is a very "green" evangelism outreach. Forget the long lasting light bulbs, we can now use pickles.
I wonder if it makes any difference whether it is a "dill" or a "sweet" pickle? I also wonder if there is any danger of "bread & butter" pickles blowing-up?
i'm using this in youth ministry from now on...the presentation will go something like this, "so you see kids, you're like a pickle (hopefully none of my immature boys laugh). you need an energy source so you can glow almost catch on fire. that source is God. he'll make you glow. get plugged into God and you'll be different from all those other pickles out there." yeah!
Beavis and Buthead moment - "heh-heh, heh... Did you say pickle sling?"
I can hear the discussions now...
"So you want me to let "God" immobilize me, and shock me until I'm not normal anymore?"
"Does this process also change sweet pickles to dills? Christians would make so much more sense..."
