By now you have probably seen the catchy television commercials for
MasterCard. They start by identifying some things that people can buy
with their MasterCard, then show a moment that is priceless and end by
saying, "There are some things money can't buy, for everything else
there's MasterCard."

For example, in one such commercial there is a man and his young son
headed to the baseball park. The commercial shows the dad buying his
son a hot dog and you hear the words, "Hot dog at the big league
game...$3.00."

The next scene shows the dad buying a game program and the words,
"Program...$6.00." Then, one of those large, orange hands with the
fingers forming a #1 is shown and you hear something like, "Large,
orange hand...$15.00." The commercial finishes by showing the father
explaining some important aspect of the game to his son, who is
listening intently as he looks up at his father with excitement in his
eyes, "Meaningful conversation between a father and a son...
priceless."

"There are some things money can't buy, for everything else there's
MasterCard."

Friends, I'm not unlike those agencies promoting their favorite credit
card. I'm here to advertise. You see, my life is a commercial for
others to see. I'm a card carrying representative for the Master's Card.
That's right, the MASTER'S CARD. Let me tell you about it. There are no
finance charges, no payments due. My bill has already been covered...it's a
prepaid deal. I couldn't afford the price, so Jesus stepped in and paid
it for me. My Name is written on the card for all to see.

It is accessible twenty-four hours a day from anywhere in the world.
The MASTER'S CARD has so many benefits it's hard to list them all. Let me
share some of them with you...you might want to apply for a personal
card yourself. Just for starters there is UNLIMITED GRACE. That's
right, there is no preset limit to the amount of grace you receive from the
MASTER'S CARD. Have you been looking for love in all the wrong places?
Then, look no farther than the MASTER'S CARD. It offers the greatest
rate on love that has ever been offered.

The MASTER'S CARD gives you access to many "members only" benefits.

Want real joy despite the difficulties of life? Apply for the MASTER'S
CARD. Want a lasting peace? Apply for the MASTER'S CARD. Looking for
something you can always rely on in a jam? The MASTER'S CARD is perfect

Another great thing about the MASTER'S CARD is that it never expires.
Once you're a member, you're a member for life...eternal life, that is.
Membership has its privileges, you know.

How do you receive the MASTER'S CARD. Dial 1-800-ROMANS10:9 "if thou
shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine
heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved."
Jesus is standing by right now to take your call. Don't delay. This
great offer won't last forever. Peace, joy and hope: Invaluable. Faith,
contentment and assurance: Inestimable. Salvation: Priceless.

There are some things money can't buy. For those, there's the Master's
Card. Christian, why not be an advertisement for the MASTER'S CARD. Let
your life be a commercial today for Jesus Christ.
