There were a lot of young people in the carnival area. Typically
young people love getting a million dollar bill. These pictures
show some of the typical reactions. Above, million dollar bills
are really cool. Above to the right, are you really giving me
a million dollar bill? And to the right is the best reaction,
and most typical, people reading the back of the million dollar
bill.
The gospel message is on the back of the million dollar bill,
presented using the law to convict people of their sin -- helping
them realize they have disobeyed God's laws; that this is serious;
and the consequences are very serious. Then it presents the good
news of the gospel. That Jesus willingly took the penalty for
our breaking God's law on Himself. He paid our penalty so we can
go free.
"He who believes in the Son has eternal life; but he
who does mot obey the Son will not see life, but the wrath of
God abides in him." - John 3:36
