Hellfire--Eternal Torment

Description: A bed sheet with text and/or artwork used as a visual aid to a preacher's sermon. Comprised of nearly 40 Bible references and short summations thereof, this particular sermon chart describes the subject by restating Biblical terminology.

Evolution and Bible

Description: A bed sheet with text and/or artwork used as a visual aid to a preacher's sermon. Though the first section of this particular sermon appears in two columns, it does not appear to be a contrast in substance. Rather the preacher applies selected Bible citations (eight, in red) to certain elements of "evolution." A clear contrast follows in a series of "chasms they cannot bridge" followed by two questions about "missing links" and "new species." Finally, the preacher assails additional aspects of … more
