Book distribution in Pakistan

Pastor Fiaz drove to Karachi last week, a trip of about 1500 km, where he distributed books and tracts to various churches. He also went to another city and gave these to a seminary graduating class pictured below. There are very few English books that have been translated into Urdu, and my Numbers book is the only book of its kind in Pakistan. There are a few articles that are available on the meaning of numbers, which are available for them to read, but these mostly just give a listing of numbers with their meaning. They do not explain how they derive the biblical meaning of those numbers.

So our book is in great demand right now, and once the people read this book, they immediately ask for more material. Right now Pastor Fiaz is finishing up a compilation of all 12 of my tracts, which will be printed into a single book shortly. Somehow he had missed book 4 of God's Marvelous Plan for Creation, but this will not take long to translate, now that I sent him the English version.

Pastor Fiaz (left) sent many pictures of individuals receiving the books and tracts, but I have posted only a few of them below.

Here is a stack of the Numbers book, which Pastor Fiaz (right) is giving to a fellow pastor.

Once the compilation of tracts is complete, he will start the longer project of translating The Laws of the Second Coming. This will take a couple of months, because the book is 204 pages in English and will be longer in Urdu, because their lettering takes up a lot more space. But the cost of printing is less in Pakistan than it is here in America. For 2,000 copies of a tract, the cost is only about $150. 1000 copies of the Numbers book can be printed for $1 each. They will soon need to print the fourth edition of the book.

I talk to Pastor Fiaz on Telegram at least once a week. It is good to talk to him face to face on video. I have met his wife and three children. The oldest daughter is ten. The middle child is his son, Abraham. Perhaps I can get him to send a family photo so you can meet them, too.

Of course, he has already invited me to come to Pakistan to teach the word in the Bible schools, seminaries, and churches. I don't doubt that I will be going there at some point, but it is still too soon. Meanwhile, the books and tracts are giving me a lot of name recognition and credibility, and Pastor Fiaz is preparing the way before me!
