Dear Friend:
GREETINGS! Right now I'm greatly relieved, enthusiastic,
a little EXCITED--and very HAPPY!!! This personally concerns YOU!
By experience I've learned that it really is "more
blessed to give than to receive"--and now for the first time in
more than 27 years I am in position to GIVE something very fine
such as I have never been able to do before. And I mean it! This
is just a straight gift--and I hope you'll like it as much as I
think you will!
I'm deeply GRATEFUL for your interest in The Plain Truth,
The WORLD TOMORROW program, and our booklets. It's been my custom
to send out, semi-annually, a personal, general letter to each of
our subscribers to The Plain Truth--to tell you frankly and
candidly a few things about this world-wide work, and to answer
questions many ask about myself and those who work with me.
Each time, I've been able to offer you a new or special
free booklet. But this time it has been made possible to present
you with something very special! I'm really thrilled, and I would
like to tell you how it came about.
But first, let me explain just a bit about WHY we make no
charge for anything--HOW this policy came about, and how your
subscription to The Plain Truth has been paid for you--why you
cannot pay for it yourself. Yes, I realize it sounds pretty
strange. I guess almost everything about the broadcast, The Plain
Truth, and this entire work seems a little strange, because it is
all SO DIFFERENT!
In these annual letters I have answered before a question
so many ask: "Just who are you, anyway? Do you represent a
religious denomination, or what? Who sponsors you? WHY don't you
charge a subscription price, and put a price on printed matter?"
I have explained before that even as Christ joined none
of the religious denominations of that day, so this, HIS WORK, is
non-denominational today.
