PICTURES WITH A MESSAGE
BROAD, NARROW and REPENTANCE Road Posters
The popular “Broad & Narrow Road Posters” has
been distributed all over the world since 1867. Many of us can remember
them hanging in homes, churches and schools. In our modern world these posters
seem to have disappeared, however, the dream & vision of one lady’s “pictures
with a message” continues to touch the lives of millions as the massive
mobilisation with the distribution of this very helpful ministry &
evangelical tool continues.
1862 – The original idea and designer of the “Broad
& Narrow Road Poster” came from Mrs. Charlotte Reihlen of Stuttgart.
The Artist, Herr Schacker did the original drawings, sketches and artwork on
strict instructions from Mrs Reihlen. In 1867 the German Evangelical Society
published the first posters in Dutch.
1883 – Morgan and Scott issued the full colour “English
Shilling Edition” in October 1883. The demand for these “pictures with a
message” was so great that over a 5year period more than 100 000 were sold,
distributed and used by missionaries and churches all over the world.
1997 – Advent 2000 in South Africa started with the
production, re-introduction and distribution of the new “Broad, Narrow and Repentance
Road Posters” with a few small but necessary changes. These changes include
a more “modern” depiction of sins on the “Broad & Narrow Road” as
well as an all-important “repentance path” to the Narrow Road. To date
more than 2.2million of these “Broad, Narrow and Repentance Road Posters” have
been distributed in 37 languages.
The “Broad, Narrow and Repentance Road Posters” are designed
to teach and spread the Word of God as fast as possible throughout the
world, even to the illiterate. The Poster is very easy to use and within a few
minutes even a layman can understand and explain what it means and how it can
be used.
The Poster consists of three basic points:
Ø
“find yourself”
Ø
“where are you going?”
Ø
“are you satisfied with your future?”
Scripture verses are quoted at the bottom of the poster to
further explain each numbered drawing and the poster shows the road to
conversion. Many thousands of people, the young and the old, have been
converted with the aid of this ministry tool.
