Introduction
By Evangelist Rev. David Hupp, HIS Print Media Ministries
In the Message Bible, the Apostle Paul writes, regarding
God’s desire and his evangelism efforts: I Timothy 2:4-7;
Titus 2:11
He wants not only us but everyone saved, you know, every-
one to get to know the truth we’ve learned: that there’s one
God and only one, and one Priest-Mediator between God
and us—Jesus, who offered himself in exchange for every-
one held captive by sin, to set them all free. Eventually the
news is going to get out.
This and this only has been my appointed work: getting this
news to those who have never heard of God, and explaining
how it works by simple faith and plain truth.
God’s readiness to give and forgive is now public. Salva-
tion’s available for everyone!
This last verse reads, in the Living Bible: For the free gift of
eternal salvation is now being offered to everyone...
The New Living Translation adds (Titus 3:4-7):
But—When God our Savior revealed His kindness and love,
He saved us, not because of the righteous things we had
done, but because of His mercy. He washed away our sins,
giving us a new birth and new life through the Holy Spirit.
He generously poured out the Spirit upon us through Jesus
Christ our Savior. Because of His grace He declared us
righteous and gave us confi dence that we will inherit eternal
life.
Jesus Christ Himself gave his followers a great commis-
sion to take the good news of the free gift of eternal life
through personal faith and trust in Him, to all the inhabited
earth (Matthew 28:18,19):
Jesus came and told His disciples, “I have been given all
authority in heaven and on earth.
Matt. 28:19 Therefore, go and make disciples of all the na-
tions, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son
and the Holy Spirit.”

Today, Christianity is one of the world’s largest religions,
19,000 new believers are being added to the church each
day, in spite of severe persecution. However, 23,000 babies
are being born each day, and Islam (probably due to their
higher number of children per family), is the fastest growing
religion. In the mid 1990’s, Islam was the second largest
and fastest growing religion in America!
What we can learn from this is, relying primarily on big
Evangelists or big ministries to get the job done, is not the
most effective method. Each individual Christian needs to
be winning souls. In 1974, in a class at Miracle Valley Bible
College, I learned that if each of the fi fty students in that
classroom were to win one soul per year, and train that new
convert to win a new soul each succeeding year, in less than
fi fty years the whole world would be won to Christ. This
kind of exponential growth can be categorized by the
scientifi c principle of Synergism.
Webster’s Dictionary defi nes this word as follows:
interaction of discrete agencies (as industrial fi rms), agents
(as drugs), or conditions such that the total effect is greater
than the sum of the individual effects.
A simple story illustrates this. A wise man of the Orient did
a favor for the Emperor. When asked how he could be re-
paid, he requested for a grain of rice to be placed on the cor-
ner square of a chess board, and the amount of rice placed
on each succeeding square to be doubled. The amount of
rice to be placed on the last square of the game board would
be astronomical or far more than one would imagine.
I like the saying, “Each one win one, then all will be won!”
Larry Beckmann’s anointed soul winning plan provides us
the tools and method to accomplish this.

Forward by Prince Handley
About 35 years ago, I had the privilege to ordain into the
ministry, a man who without a doubt, was the greatest personal
soul winner of the last 100 years. His name was Reverend
Larry Beckmann; and he was the recipient, posthumously, of
the World Services® University of Excellence Honorary Doctor-
ate for excellence in personal evangelism and discipleship.
Larry came to Bible studies I taught where many high school
and college students attended. I also had the privilege to pray
for him to receive the Baptism in the Holy Spirit with the evi-
dence of speaking in tongues. A few minutes later he was lead-
ing a man to Christ at a liquor store next door. Reverend Beck-
mann kept a detailed daily log, or diary, of the people he led to
Christ.
From the day Christ came into Larry’s heart on May 2, 1964
until June 9, 1996, during that 32 years, he personally prayed
with 170,336 people to receive Christ. In one city alone (Atlan-
ta, Georgia) 60,347 people prayed with him to receive Christ.
In just a fi ve year period, one married couple Larry trained in
soul-winning, in Atlanta, prayed with an additional 8,000 peo-
ple to receive Christ.
These are the greatest MIRACLES: people experiencing
Christ! It is with GREAT JOY that I share with you the tool which
the Holy Spirit had Larry prepare for the Body of Christ before
he went to Heaven: “God’s Anointed Soul-Winning Plan.” This
is the plan he used to lead people to Christ.
Why is this plan entitled “God’s Anointed Soul-Winning
Plan?” The answer lies in the meaning of the word “anointed.”
Pastor Mel Amrine wisely said: “The proof of whether a plan is
anointed or not is in the results it gets.” You can have
ten soul-winning plans with all ten of them full of Bible verses;
nine of them see only a few results, but the tenth plan sees
enormous results. It is the plan that sees enormous results
which is anointed.
In a period of just 11 years before Larry Beckmann went to
Heaven, the Lord used this plan to lead more than 100,000
people to pray and receive Christ as Savior. Virtually everyone
who uses it sees tremendous results.

The Plan
NOTE: This is not a tract. This is a tool for soul-winners.
Only read what is printed in red to the people with whom you
witness. The fi rst two times you read this, read it exactly as
written. Do not let Satan trick you into believing you’ll look
foolish reading this. Because of the anointing on this plan,
the person you are witnessing to will listen!
Pardon me, may I ask you a question?
I’m a Christian and I’m taking a survey; can you listen
for about three minutes?
You believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. Is that
true?
Nine in ten Americans believe this much. This will vary from
country to country. If the person does not believe this, END
the survey. Then SOW SOME SEED to help him/her come
to Christ at a FUTURE time.
Don’t stop reading in the MIDDLE of these next two ques-
tions – read them through to the end.
Have you ever met Christ personally, where He has come
into your heart as Savior?
You’ve never met Christ personally, have you?
NEVER ask: “Are you a Christian?” NEVER ask: “Are you
saved?” Why? Because almost EVERYBODY says “Yes”
to either of these two questions. And once they say “Yes”
you can’t win them to Christ. The previous two questions
lead them into a “No” answer. However, if they are saved,
these questions are written in such a way that you will be
able to read to them and see if they are saved.
I advise you to MEMORIZE this next statement—and then
use it for the rest of your life as you witness.
It’s simple to get Jesus into your heart.

The fi rst thing to realize is that Christ LOVES you. When
He hung on the cross He died for YOU. He died in your
place.
John 3:16 NLT (Read it or say it to them . . . best to let them
look at it in the Bible with you.)
“For God loved the world so much that He gave His one and
only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not per-
ish but have eternal life.”
Do you know why He died for you on that cross?
So you wouldn’t have to go to HELL and burn forever.
Look at my fi nger . . . how many sins does it take to put you
into Hell, according to the Bible?
(Hold up one fi nger.)
Just ONE. James 2:10 teaches that.
Everybody has sinned. You’ve sinned.
(Read or say Romans 3:23 to them - best to let them look at
it in the Bible with you.)
For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God’s glorious
standard. NLT
Which means, if you died tonight in a car wreck without
Christ, you would be in Hell.
And that’s the reason I stopped you. Because it is very
easy to protect you from Hell.
Of course, I can’t protect you from Hell, but God can.
If you’re a good person, will you go to Heaven?
No! Ephesians 2:8 says that being good doesn’t even help.
(Read it or say it to them . . . best to let them look at it in the
Bible with you.)
Eph 2:8 NLT God saved you by His grace when you be-
lieved. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God.
Church, baptism, believing—none of these [good works]
can save you.

The devil BELIEVES that Jesus is God, and the devil is
NOT going to Heaven. Believing is only the fi rst step.
HERE’S THE ANSWER!! To get to Heaven you must let
Jesus come into your heart.
Revelation 3:20 NLT (Read it or say it to them . . . best to let
them look at it in the Bible with you.)
In Revelation 3:20 Jesus says, “Look! I stand at the door
and knock. If you hear My voice and open the door, I will
come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.”
Be honest, do you WANT to let Jesus come into your heart?
Because you LOVE Him, right?
And you don’t want to go to Hell.
And you need Him.
In order to be saved from Hell, you must REPENT! That is,
TURN from wanting Christ only partially . . . to wanting Him
100%. Are you willing to turn from your sins?
Do you want Jesus to come into your heart as a FRIEND?
Now, I’m going to make it real hard for you. Do you want
Jesus as a friend with ALL your heart?
Don’t pray with them unless they are 100% sure.
If you mean this prayer, you won’t have to go to Hell.
Just repeat [this prayer] after me.
Jesus, I believe You are here. (PAUSE) I’m sorry for my
sins. (PAUSE) And you promised to save me from Hell if I
would ask you into my heart. (PAUSE) So I ask you, Jesus
. . . please come into my heart right now.
He heard your prayer . . . He is in your heart NOW!
Did you really mean that prayer?
So . . . where is Jesus living right now?
In your heart!
Do you have to ask Jesus into your heart every day to go
