Dear Co-Workers with Christ:
You will soon be receiving the semi-annual letter, written
today for the entire 400,000 subscribers to The Plain Truth. Both
that letter, and this one, will be air-mailed to Pasadena,
reprinted and mailed from there. You will be receiving that letter
separately a little later.
In it I am telling all our readers of The Plain Truth that
VOLUME II of Mr. Basil Wolverton's The Bible Story book is now
being printed, to be sent, as Volume I was last year, ABSOLUTELY
FREE.
Naturally you will want your copy--be sure to request it BY
RETURN MAIL as soon as you receive the semi-annual letter (a coupon
will be provided). I'm expecting another deluge of requests. The
entire 100,000 copies may be gone in a very short time.
I do want YOU, who have voluntarily become Co-Workers with me
and WITH CHRIST, in His Work, to know this: Out of more than
400,000 people who will receive that letter, approximately 365,000
of them--a full 90% or more--have never been asked to send any
money for this great Work. Probably almost that number have never
sent a single penny--and have never been asked to do so. A few may
have sent a dollar or two once or twice--but, unless they have sent
offerings VOLUNTARILY at least TWICE in six months, they have
received no request for contributions from us.
But YOU are one of our precious inner family of CO-WORKERS.
You have become so voluntarily. God has shown us, in His Word,
that His ministers are to ask His own people to GIVE--to pay honest
tithes--to contribute generous offerings, besides. Moses sent out
a proclamation to God's people of his day, asking for
contributions. The Apostle Paul did, in his day. But God's own
ministers never have taken up collections or made request for
contributions or financial support, FROM THE WORLD TO WHOM THEY ARE
CARRYING GOD'S PRECIOUS GOSPEL!
Jesus Christ commanded us to go to the world with His Gospel,
but certainly not to BEG FROM the world. We are to GIVE TO, not
