to UNDERSTANDING of God's revelation of TRUTH to humanity--the Holy Bible.
The Bible is approximately one-third history, one-third prophecy and
one-third revealed teaching of God's way of life and the PURPOSE and
MEANING of life.
But it also reveals the real MEANING of world conditions and their
causes--the reasons for such human perplexity, misunderstanding, suffering and
confusion in the midst of such amazing PROGRESS and materialistic
advancement.
Consequently, since the Bible is God's Word to mankind, and it is the
TRUTH, I was led to name this magazine The PLAIN TRUTH--making the TRUTH
about life and about world conditions plain, clear, understandable!
The PLAIN TRUTH, therefore, brings you the real MEANING of today's
world news and the PROPHECIES of the future. It brings you UNDERSTANDING
of life's problems, personal, family, group, national and worldwide.
It is unique, unlike any other publication on earth, now published in six
languages, circulated over every continent on earth. It is a mission of LOVE--a
desire to HELP, to GIVE, to enlighten, to make you THINK, examine, study--to get
ALL the facts before you.
Many new subscribers wonder why there is no subscription price for The
PLAIN TRUTH, and no commercial advertising. The Bible teaches, "Buy the truth,
and sell it not..." (Prov. 23:23). God's TRUTH cannot be commercialized. For
the benefit of new subscribers, let me explain our policy.
God's Word teaches GIVING. God is the chief GIVER--he gives us the air
we breathe. He GAVE his only begotten Son Jesus Christ to pay the penalty for
repentant sinners. His way of life for us is GIVING, not getting. Yet he does
not
compel humans to live according to HIS WAY--we are free moral agents and
each must make his own decision. Giving must therefore be voluntary on the part
of each individual. We find an increasing desire on the part of subscribers to
help
out financially. So our policy is this:
We never solicit contributions or financial help. It must be voluntary.
But, if
one does voluntarily send in a contribution two or more times within six months,
we believe that person does desire to have a part with us in spreading the TRUE
GOSPEL to the world. I do then send a letter to such contributors, explaining
our
policy, and assuming they desire to be co-workers WITH Christ and with us in
God's Work. We place names on our "Co-Worker List" to receive a monthly
special letter from me informing of progress in the Work. I do when necessary
tell
our family of co-workers of any special financial needs. This, we believe, is
God's
way.
Jesus taught us to pray, "give us this day our daily bread"--our day-to-
day
needs. God has promised "God shall supply all your need according to his riches
in glory by Christ Jesus" (Phil. 4:19). We rely on HIM and he supplies our need
