getting out the GOSPEL -- has expanded about 60% this past year --
just about double the 30% growth that we have had yearly for 35
years!
BUT, the income to carry on this gigantic WORK, now
reaching 150 MILLION PEOPLE WORLDWIDE, is now running considerably
under the usual 30% increase. The PLAIN TRUTH circulation is now
up to TWO MILLION COPIES -- a readership of SIX or SEVEN MILLION!
Then there is the NEW magazine, TOMORROW'S WORLD! It makes the
BIBLE plain, interesting, and important enough to give YOU ETERNAL
LIFE!
Co-Workers and Brethren! -- this tremendous WORK OF GOD is
now WAITING ON YOU! Christ is OPENING DOORS! God is blessing this
Work with greater and greater results! Thousands upon thousands of
lives are being changed -- brought to Christ and ETERNAL LIFE IN
GOD'S KINGDOM every year, with increasing momentum!
ONLY the income is lacking! We must get it back up!
Otherwise I have to cancel about 100 radio stations and cut PLAIN
TRUTH circulation in half. That would be an unthinkable tragedy.
It would be DISASTROUS. But I will be forced to do just that
unless income picks up! It's no "wolf-wolf cry"!
With so little time -- with every sign in the world
pointing to the short time left -- with Christ leaping the Work
forward so dynamically with such tremendous results, I find it hard
to understand WHY our Co-Workers are letting down at so serious a
time.
This is not to be taken lightly. Please PRAY for the
Work, as you never prayed before, and PUT YOUR HEART INTO IT!
PLEASE, Brethren in Christ, let's not let Christ down! Try to
increase the amount you send!
With much love, In Jesus' name,
