THE VERY NEAR COMING OF CHRIST! When Jesus Christ does appear in
all the POWER and GLORY of the Eternal GOD, to set up the KINGDOM
OF GOD, ruling the world from Jerusalem, then, at last, God's
prophecies in YOUR BIBLE say this: "...for out of Zion shall go
forth the Law, and the Word of the Eternal from Jerusalem." (Isaiah
2:3).
LISTEN, Co-Workers! Even as God raised up John the
Baptist to proclaim His Message just before, and preparing the way
for, Christ's first coming, SO, NOW GOD HAS RAISED UP THIS WORK OF
HIS--He has called YOU, along with the rest of our family of
Co-Workers--to proclaim His Message, preparing the way for the
Second Coming of Jesus Christ!
When Christ comes, HIS MESSAGE WILL GO FORTH FROM
JERUSALEM! The very fact that, at last--for the first time since
the first-century Apostles--God has OPENED THE DOOR FOR HIS WORD TO
GO FORTH FROM JERUSALEM--that very fact means we are now VERY NEAR
THE TIME OF CHRIST'S RETURN!
Time is streaking past! Only a few years are now
left. And the biggest part of the Work is yet to be done!
Listen further! These additional powerful radio
voices cost additional money. Not only that, but God has raised up
two colleges--Ambassador College in Pasadena, and Ambassador
College in England--to train many active and full-time people for
positions in this expanding world-wide Work of God. These past
three months our mail response has averaged 100,000 letters per
month. It now requires a staff of more than two hundred trained
people to open, and to answer, all these letters--to get God's
TRUTH mailed out to the hundreds of thousands who request it. And
this is the Pasadena office alone. Beside this, we now have a
large and growing staff in Sydney, Australia. Our offices there
occupy a fifth of an entire floor of one of the two or three
largest and newest office buildings in Australia. Also a large
staff is required in our offices at Ambassador College in England
to handle all the responses from Britain, Europe and Africa.
There are, as you know, THREE editions of The Plain
Truth each month in English--Los Angeles, Melbourne Australia, and
London--beside the German edition.
This great work could not continue except for these
colleges to educate and properly train young men and women for
specialized positions in this Work of God. Ambassador College at
Pasadena has now grown to more than 300 students. Ambassador
College in Bricket Wood in England already has 67 students. We
anticipate more than 100 by the fall term.
I have just been reading in the newspaper how
Stanford University has reached the 37 million dollar mark in its
drive for a 75 million dollar fund for new buildings and equipment.
The California Institute of Technology, here in Pasadena, recently
raised a similar fund for a great building expansion program.
These universities can raise multi-MILLIONS to train men for
materialistic service in this dying world.
