This little book is a replica edition of an Active Service John's Gospel, It was produced during the First World War by Scripture Gift Mission (now SGM Lifewords), and is reissued here to mark the 100th anniversary of the war.Many millions of New Testaments and Gospels such as this one were issued to soldiers at training camps, distributed through charity tea huts at the Front given to wounded soldiers by nurses, or handed out by chaplains. They were designed to be carried in the front pocket of a uniform, the edges rounded to prevent creasing. Hymns were included at the back so that chaplains could hold services in the field. Each one had a message from the war hero Lord Roberts printed inside.In God's Word, many soldiers, sailors and airmen found peace when they were afraid, strength when they were under pressure, and comfort even in the face of death.
