entire world, we shall at last have--PEACE!
In the meantime, it is OUR responsibility to WARN the
people of these things--to show our people that the one way to
victory and to peace is thru our GOD--thru repentance, returning to
God's laws, placing our faith and trust in HIM! Meanwhile, it is
our responsibility to proclaim to our people and to the world the
GOOD NEWS of the coming KINGDOM OF GOD, wherein we SHALL have peace
and prosperity! In other words, to proclaim the true GOSPEL of
JESUS CHRIST, and the way of salvation, that we may ENTER into that
KINGDOM of peace!
The CALL to ARMS !
I want you to notice one prophecy for THIS VERY HOUR!
It is Joel 2:1; 15-17: "Blow ye the trumpet in ZION, and sound the
alarm in My HOLY MOUNTAIN." A trumpet is a WARNING--an alarm of
war. Where are we to sound it? "In ZION"--in God's holy mountain.
That is, the true CHURCH--among GOD'S PEOPLE--the HOLY people--
those who are God's own true children. We are, therefore, CALLED
TO ARMS! True Christians are CALLED TO ARMS! We are to sound a
WARNING. What is it? "Let all the inhabitants of the land
TREMBLE: for the DAY OF THE LORD COMETH." The warning of the
trouble to come--the DAY OF THE LORD--the time of God's plagues,
now soon to follow. We, the Christians, are to warn "ALL THE
INHABITANTS OF THE LAND." Read also verses 15:17. We are to take
this call to arms so seriously we FAST and PRAY!
The nations of this world are at war. We, as
Christians, are "ambassadors for Christ." We have answered God's
battle cry! We, too, have been called to WAR! What's OUR mission?
Shouting God's WARNING--proclaiming His MESSAGE--preaching the
GOSPEL! We fight with a SWORD--the symbolical sword of the SPIRIT,
which is THE WORD OF GOD. The sword issues from our MOUTHS--by
proclaiming fearlessly and forcefully GOD'S WARNING! Yes, we're
soldiers for CHRIST! And THIS IS WAR!
It requires of us sacrifices, courage, perhaps
suffering. Shall we be any less good soldiers than those fighting
for doomed MATERIAL kingdoms, and godless satanic human leaders
like Hitler and Hiro-Hito? They fight like inspired fiends. They
offer their very LIVES--they give up EVERYTHING.
The Eternal God has placed in OUR hands, thru the WORLD
TOMORROW program over nine powerful radio stations, and thru The
PLAIN TRUTH, powerful facilities for fighting His battle--for using
His sword, which is sending forth the WORD OF GOD! Precious souls
are being converted all over the United States! Many are being
awakened! Letters keep pouring in by the hundreds testifying to
this! Already between a half and three quarters of a million souls
are reached by the broadcasts EVERY SUNDAY. The present
circulation of The PLAIN TRUTH is 35,000 copies, and this is going
up rapidly. Within three to four months we must add more powerful
radio stations to reach still other hundreds of thousands of people
with the vital message of the hour.
It is IMPERATIVE that I get out another issue of The
