of others, the precious TRUTHS of GOD. My faithful and loving
wife was laboring with me at my side. Neither of us grumbled nor
complained because of personal material lack. But GOD'S WORK was
being gradually increased. God was supplying the actual NEED for
the Work.
THE JOB TO WHICH WE HAD BEEN CALLED WAS GETTING DONE! We
had found HAPPINESS. Our prayers were being heard -- AND ANSWERED
-- often very miraculously. And TODAY THIS WORK OF GOD IS TRULY
WORLDWIDE AND GREAT!
Now that the WORK has been prospered, our ACTUAL NEED is
greater than ever! For that actual NEED is more SPIRITUAL than
material.
Just as it was, personally, with me 46 years ago, SO it is
with ALL OF US TODAY -- with GOD'S WORK today -- if we SEEK FIRST
the Kingdom of God and HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS -- if we put that FIRST
in our lives, then,
1) the needs for the WORK will be supplied, and
2) each of your individual personal financial needs will
be supplied. DO YOU BELIEVE THAT? I tell you, I KNOW IT!
Now LOOK AHEAD!
What do we face, in the Work, for the new year?
1) The general economic condition in our western world
indicates a year of gradually increasing prosperity during the
year. That should help each of us to HELP THE WORK financially,
a little more.
2) We now face another difficult three months in financing
this Great Commission of Christ. Traditionally, only 45% to 47%
of the year's income is received during the first six months,
whereas 53% to 55% of the expenditures must be paid out those
first six months. Brethren and Co-Workers, I NEED YOUR INTENSIVE,
DEADLY EARNEST, PREVAILING AND BELIEVING PRAYERS FOR THIS WORK,
continuously and daily, beginning now, AS NEVER BEFORE! And for
myself and Garner Ted personally, too.
3) We MUST be forewarned that OUR WORK COULD BE CUT SHORT
and finished, for this present time, suddenly when least expected.
Read Jesus' warnings in Matthew 24:32-44; and Luke 21:31-36.
Please get your Bible, and read those passages -- and take them to
heart. For I tell you this: Events are already happening in
Europe and within the Catholic Church, in the Middle East and in
Russia, that could IMPEL the Vatican, in self-preservation to offer
its good offices as a Supreme and politically neutral Authority, in
bringing about what the nations of Europe have so avidly DESIRED --
yet been unable, of themselves, to bring about -- POLITICAL UNION
of those nations.
This could be done either, a) by a sudden action by Pope
Paul, or, b) by his abdication, and election of another prepared
