has to do with God's PURPOSE, His Master Plan for working it out,
and the Plan of Salvation. Never has this subject been presented,
before, so far as I know, from the approach of GOD'S WORD--of what
GOD has to say about sex--of the connection with God's Message to
mankind!
Meanwhile this WORK OF GOD is going forward at ever-
increasing power and scope, world-wide. I just heard our first
broadcast on another super-power 50,000 watt radio station this
morning. We have recently added MANY additional radio stations,
now broadcasting The WORLD TOMORROW to hundreds of thousands--even
millions--of people who never heard God's TRUTH--Christ's ORIGINAL
GOSPEL--before. Thousands are being converted--their lives
completely changed-- begotten as children of God, to be born into
His Kingdom! The harvest of precious lives increases by the month!
This takes a constantly increasing outlay of money, and
of called, consecrated, trained personnel.
The first unit of our new Master Plan for building
expansion on the Pasadena campus of Ambassador College is just
being completed--the new Physical Education plant. We hope to
break ground for the second unit--the new dining hall--in November.
The big new men's dormitory, housing all the men students at the
campus in England, has just been completed--all but the large
common lounge room--and all men students are now in residence
there.
We have about 65 new first-year students at the college
in England, a similar number of new students (over 100 total) at
the Texas campus--our first pioneer year there--and about 165 new
first-year students added to the Student body at the Pasadena
campus. They are taking the place of many others who graduated
last June and are now out full-time in GOD'S WORK around the world.
Some of these men and women have been sent to South Africa, some to
Europe, some to Australia--others stationed in Britain, Canada, and
America.
Let me put emphasis once again on this very SOURCE of the
growth and power and HARVEST reaped by this great Work--the
training at the Ambassador Colleges of more and more God-called,
consecrated and fully converted young men and women. And we have
gone as far as we can go, now, unless and until we can erect
additional buildings at these colleges. More students require
additional classrooms, additional library and study facilities,
additional dormitory buildings and dining halls.
For this vital and basic purpose I have had to ask for
extra, additional, and special offerings for this Property and
Building Fund, over and above your tithes and other regular
offerings for the operation of the great world-wide GOSPEL WORK.
In another month or six weeks the time will roll around
again when I shall have to ask you Co-Workers for new statements of
intention for this special Building Fund for the year 1965. This
special Fund has been slacking off this second half of 1964.
CO-WORKERS, let's make up for this slack! LET'S MAKE SPECIAL
