Have you noticed the constant improvement in The PLAIN TRUTH?
Our Printing Department tells me we are now saving $10,000 per
month by printing the United States-Canada edition ourselves in our
OWN newly enlarged printing plant. We are now printing the
Australian edition ourselves in our own new printing plant in
Sydney. And we have just leased a large warehouse-type building in
England near Ambassador College to install larger presses and SAVE
MONEY doing our own printing of the British edition of The PLAIN
TRUTH. Then all editions of The PLAIN TRUTH around the world will
be printed BY US in our own printing plants AT LARGE SAVINGS! No
one ever hears any begging for money over the air on The WORLD
TOMORROW--like they do on other religious programs.
Do you REALLY realize THERE'S NOTHING LIKE THIS ON EARTH?
YOUR sacrifice--YOUR sending in of tithes and generous
offerings--are all that make this possible. You are working right
WITH Jesus Christ--the living Christ who is soon coming again to
earth--as HE, with us as Co-Workers and instruments, sends out,
now, His last Message PREPARING THE WAY FOR HIS RETURN TO EARTH!
He is coming this time in all the POWER and the GLORY of the Great
God of the UNIVERSE! He is coming as KING of Kings, and LORD of
lords--to RULE THE WHOLE WORLD! He is coming to END war,
confusion, heartache, suffering and violence. He is coming to
bring PEACE, and SALVATION to the world!
LISTEN, Co-Workers! Is anything else important just now?
THIS is the IMPORTANT business! THIS is the BIG YEAR! THIS
is the CRISIS YEAR! And God's Work is IN A SUPREME CRISIS RIGHT
NOW!
We have had our two "austere years." We even cut a few radio
stations off our list. We pared every expense to the bone. This
put GOD'S WORK in a sound and healthy financial condition.
But now we have to GO AHEAD. The WORK can't stand still. We
have added more radio stations--more in Australia, New Zealand,
Germany, France, England, and more in the United States and Canada.
We had to or see the Work begin to go backward. CHRIST NEVER GOES
BACKWARD--always forward! But the past six weeks or so we have not
been having the usual increase in income. For 31 years this Work
has enjoyed a steady increase averaging 30% a year. THAT INCREASE
MUST BE MAINTAINED if Christ's mission is to be completed in time!
Right now the situation becomes alarming!
Everything else is "GO!" All is going forward except the
tithes and offerings to defray the financial costs of the greatest
Work on earth!
LISTEN, dear Co-Worker! YOU are a Co-Worker with CHRIST. Not
with me--except as I, too, am a Co-Worker WITH CHRIST! This is OUR
part! I have personally increased the offerings from my personal
pocket--and my contribution to the Building Fund. I never ask you
to do a thing I don't do also, myself! It is the living Jesus
Christ we are working with--and FOR! He is ALIVE! He LIVES! He
