Paul Levin
1914 - 1996
"I believe this is a great hour of opportunity, and all
evangelists, pastors and Christians of sound, separated churches ought to
go all out in soul winning, knocking on doors, extensive bus ministries,
and forget all about 'why you can't see many people saved these
days."
Paul Levin, the son of Swedish immigrants, was born in Moline, Illinois,
in 1914. He was led to Christ by his godly mother at the age of four.
From
his earliest days, he "preached" with a piano stool for his
pulpit! Levin surrendered his life for full-time service to Christ as a
teenager and began preaching in evangelistic campaigns. He teamed with
blind singer Bob Findley in 1934, and they crossed the country preaching
the Gospel.
Levin
started a daily radio program, "Bible Tract Echoes," and for
many years served as the president of Bible Tracts. He wrote more than
forty tracts with a circulation of over 230 million in more than 75
languages. His most famous booklet is entitled "The New Birth".
For
many years, Levin was a featured speaker during youth weeks at the Bill
Rice Ranch. Thousands of young people were saved and called into
Christian service under his unique style of preaching.
After
a lengthy bout with cancer, Dr. Levin went Home to be with the Lord on
September 7, 1996.
