Dear Co-Worker with Christ:
Just LOOK how far we have come since this decade began! And
then look at what's JUST AHEAD!
In the next four years, you are going to see STAGGERING EVENTS
happening in this world, which few, even today, would believe!
Yet, just beyond, in a way almost NO ONE today would believe, WORLD
PEACE is coming to this earth. An entirely NEW WORLD will soon
dawn--the happy, peaceful, prosperous WORLD TOMORROW!
Just STOP a moment, and take stock of where we are in this
rapidly accelerating panorama of world happenings! Let's get our
bearings. Let's look realistically at the specific job to which the
living CHRIST has drafted (with our willing assent) YOU and me!
I just happened to pick out of the files the letter I sent to
our Co-Workers, dated January 29, 1960. You might still have your

Co-Workers since? I was struck with a few things I wrote, then.
It began: "This is my first letter to you in this new decade. We
have entered the 1960s. I wonder if you realize what frightful
happenings are going to affect your life during the 1960s!! ...You
and I have been called to the most gigantic mission of all
history."
Then I quoted President Eisenhower. He was still President
then. "'NO OTHER FACT IN TODAY'S WORLD EQUALS THIS IN IMPORTANCE,'
said President Eisenhower in his State of the Union Message,
January 7, speaking of the FACT that we live in a divided world,
approaching mutual annihilation. He continued, 'It colors
everything we say, plan or do....We stand in the vestibule of a
vast new technological age (with the) capacity for human
destruction.'"
Co-workers, look how far we have come since then! Still, the
really BIG world-shaking events are three to four years off. We
have just about three years and two months of this decade left.
TREMENDOUS things will happen in that brief time! So far, in this
decade, the things that have happened would appear staggering,
indeed, if they all had happened more suddenly, say, in a two or
three months' period. But these events have slipped up on us
GRADUALLY during the past seven years. We get to taking them for
