海報上方寫著「罪是從一人入了世界 死又是從罪來的 於是死就臨到眾人 因為眾人都犯了罪」(羅馬書五章十二節)。海報中間繪畫了一個地球的圖像,地球呈現出淡藍色和綠色的色調,在地球上有一個「死」字。「死」字旁有一個人字並標有「始祖」二字。在「人」字右邊有一條象徵著誘惑和罪惡的蛇,該蛇似是要向「人」襲擊。海報的右下方,以草書「罪」字開頭,然後寫著「犯罪的是屬魔鬼 因為魔鬼從起初就犯罪 上帝的兒子顯現出來 為要除滅魔鬼的作為」(約翰一書三章八節)。海報最右側「請到福音堂聽道查經」;
TA snake biting at the heel of the character for "person," and a globe with the character "death" on it. Top: Sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men because all sinned (Romans 5:12). Large characters: Sin [in cursive in the shape of a snake]. Person (in "Man": first ancestors) Death. Bottom right: The one who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil's work (1 John 3:8). Border: Please go to a church to hear the Gospel and to study the Bible.;The Scripture verse is Romans 5:12. "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned." The message of the picture is made clear in three large characters, SIN, written in the "grass style," i e. in the form of a serpent ; MAN, indicating a common ancestor; and DEATH, entering a globe. The design for this poster came from the daughter of the Official, who by changing the Imperial telegram in 1900 saved the lives of many Christians and missionaries, and lost his own for so doing.
