This curriculum includes verse memorization, book reading, listening to cassette tapes, on-the-field training by visiting for three hours per week, and two hours oftraining under pastoral leadership. These should be the most wonderful, exciting 13weeks that you have spent thus far in your Christian walk!When you received this Trainee’s guide, you began something very important -- aChristian library of cassette tapes and books. This is something that you’ll want to seecontinually grow. Be sure and look for more books and tapes to help in soul winningand other important growth areas.When you have successfully completed this 13-week course, you will be presented with a beautiful Completion Certificate there at your church. There are also threebeautiful Operation Go pins you can strive for: the bronze is presented when you winyour first soul, the silver is for when you have five of your new converts walk the aisleand make their decision public at church, and the gold pin is awarded to those who havewon 50 precious people to the Lord.The certificate and the pins will serve as wonderful reminders to you that you arenow equipped for the job -- all that is left is for you to do it!This course has been designed to successfully help any sincere Christian in growing and learning to be a proficient soul winner. However, you will also experience realspiritual growth in many other areas of the Christian life. In short, the 13 weeks aheadwill be gloriously wonderful weeks of real Christian growth and excitement in thethings of God.May God richly bless you and give you many precious souls as you present the“PLAN” made possible by the shedding of our Savior’s precious blood on Mt. Calvaryso many years ago!!“Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from theerror of his way shall save a soul from death, and shall hidea multitude of sins.”- James 5:20INTERNATIONAL OG TRAINEE’S GUIDEPAGE 1

Operation GoThree-Page Soul Winning Plan(with Underlined Key Phrases and Questions)Introductions:“Hello, I’m David Wood and this is Jerry Smith. We are from Heritage BaptistChurch and stopped by to visit with you for a little while if that’s all right withyou. May we come in? (Now spend some time being “folksy;” chat with themabout interests, children, etc.)Section I (Cast the Net Right):1. “What is your church background?” Give a brief testimony here as a naturallead into your next question.2. “If you were to die right now, are you 100% sure that you would go toHeaven?” Following a negative or unsure response, ask the next questionwhile taking your New Testament from your pocket or purse.3. “Could I take just a moment to show you how you can know for sure?” Atthis point, after a “yes,” state that there are four basic things that a personmust know and act upon to become a Christian.Section II (Use the Right Bait):4. “The first thing that God says is that we are all sinners.” Read Romans 3:23twice. Apply with simple illustrations.5. “God’s penalty for sin is death in Hell.” The bible teaches that there isa price tag on our sin. Read Romans 6:23 twice. Explain that there is aphysical death, and a second death in Hell. Explain here that man could notpossibly come up with a plan to pay that penalty, but that God has alreadypaid it.6. Now read Romans 5:8 twice. “Jesus paid the penalty for ALL sin when Hedied and shed His blood on the cross.” It is good here to lead the person tounderstand that although Jesus died for everyone, not everyone is going toHeaven. “The last thing I want to show you is what YOU need to do to besaved.”PAGE 42INTERNATIONAL OG TRAINEE’S GUIDE
7. Read Romans 10:13 twice, then read and explain I John 5: 11 &12 withsimple illustrations. Then lead right into Romans 10:13. “If you were tocall upon the Lord right now and ask Him to save you, He would do it.”Section III (Draw the Net Right):8. Try to not take even a second’s break here, but instantly say, “Let’s bowour heads while I lead us in prayer.” Now you pray, thanking God for thisperson and this wonderful opportunity. Now, ask him to pray.9. “If the Lord Jesus would receive you right now, just as you are -- and Hewill -- would you receive Him right now as your Savior?” He then repeatsa simple, phrase-by-phrase sinner’s prayer aloud, after you.10. “If you really meant business, reach out and take my hand.”11. You then immediately pray with rejoicing and confidence as to the suretyof his salvation. Close your prayer with a final “Amen.” It is important tonote that his head has been bowed since step #8 until this point, making amore prayerful attitude possible and leading to an easier decision for Christ.Section IV (Keeping What You Catch):12. You now give him assurance of salvation. Read Romans 10: 13 once morealoud to him, then use the following to emphasize the message of this verse:“Who does ‘whosoever’ mean?”
