Now I have to tell you that, while I had actually given the
order to start the broadcast on two more great super-power
stations, KWKH at Shreveport, and KVOO at Tulsa, I later withdrew
it, and decided to hold off starting on these new stations, because
of all this increase in expense. I decided, instead, to first get
The PLAIN TRUTH coming out REGULARLY every month, on this greatly-
enlarged, more attractive basis. And then, later, when this is
established, and I feel we can finance it, we shall add these and
still more and more radio stations.
But we have made one great addition this Fall and winter to
the radio broadcasts. The program is now going out EVERY NIGHT
except Saturday, on the super-power station heard all over the
Pacific Coast, and Idaho, Nevada, and Montana---XERB, lower
California, 1090 on the dial, at 9:PM Pacific time. That, together
with increased costs on other stations, the regular publishing of
The PLAIN TRUTH, will more than DOUBLE our expenses this winter!
THAT MEANS WE SHALL HAVE TO DEPEND ON OUR CO-WORKERS BEING
STILL MORE LOYAL, REGULAR, LIBERAL, in their support of this great
and rapidly-growing work. God's work can't stand still. It must
advance. We are now getting the solid foundation under us for a
great, vast, powerful WORLD-WIDE work of spreading the true Gospel
of the Kingdom in these last days. A few more years, and no man
will be ABLE to preach the true Gospel. Now these great, super-
power facilities are open to us. With the larger, finer, more
interesting PLAIN TRUTH coming out every month, with a college
which soon will be turning out trained, called, qualified helpers
and ministers to FOLLOW UP THIS VAST WORK with personal contact all
over the United States---with some, called of God for the mission
whom I know God will send to us, soon coming out of this school
trained for carrying the Gospel INTO ALL NATIONS, speaking OTHER
LANGUAGES which will be taught in our school---we shall be
prepared, then, to add more and more radio stations, until the
Message is proclaimed powerfully to ALL THE WORLD! The college had
to start next September. TIME IS SHORT. It looked like we would
not be able to build and have a place for it before 1948. Then God
intervened, performed a miracle, provided us a BETTER place than we
even dreamed of, all ready to start NOW, with the next school year!
Yes, God is able to do things for us that might seem fantastic. He
can move mightily when His time has come! He HAS MOVED in our
behalf. NOW IT IS OUR TIME TO MOVE, FOR HIM. We must sacrifice,
be loyal, faithful, generous, as God has prospered us! We must be
honest with HIS MONEY, putting it faithfully, with generous
offerings added, INTO HIS WORK! The Christmas season is ahead,
when most people FORGET God's work---FORGET to give their gifts to
Christ for His work, but spend all their money TRADING GIFTS back
and forth in a heathen, pagan festival not found in the Bible,
except to be condemned in Jer. 10:1-4, called "Christ-MASS." If
you do not know the TRUTH about Christmas, write at once for our
special booklet, on The TRUTH About Christmas. So, at this season
when God's work usually suffers, REMEMBER GOD'S WORK. SEND AT ONCE
THE LARGEST, MOST GENEROUS SUM YOU CAN. I hope some will send
several thousand dollars, in large offerings, to help pay for this
wonderful new college property much sooner than we have contracted
for. God has never failed us. We must not fail Him. USE THE
ENCLOSED REPLY-ENVELOPE, and USE AIR-MAIL! GOD BLESS YOU!
