Dear Friend and Co-Worker:
I wrote you co-workers a year ago today. Again it is
"ARMISTICE DAY." A tragedy is happening, and I have to write you
again. You must help me prevent it.
It seems foolish to celebrate the armistice of World War
I. Today we are in the midst of the second armistice. AND THERE
IS A REAL REASON FOR THIS PRESENT ARMISTICE! Everyone knows it's
only another "recess!" Everyone knows ANOTHER WORLD WAR IS COMING!
But there is a divine PURPOSE in this present "time-out"
between the second and third world wars! Very few know why World
War II ended as, and when, it did.
Well here's the real truth of what happened. Shortly
before the war ended some of us knew---and I said repeatedly in
my broadcast---the Germans were feverishly rushing to completion
a mysterious new SUPER-weapon. Week after week I told the nation-
wide radio audience it was a RACE AGAINST TIME---whether General
Patton and other allied commanders could close in on Berlin and END
the war before this terrible mystery-weapon was perfected. For we
knew it was so destructive that if Hitler was able to use it, even
tho backed right up against Berlin itself, he could yet turn
apparent certain defeat into total and almost instantaneous
victory.
Well, we won that race against time---but only because a
"chance lucky hit" by an American bomb "accidently" destroyed the
center of German production of that secret weapon! U. S. forces,
upon conquering Germany, soon learned what that mysterious new
weapon was! Their frightful new weapon was the ATOMIC BOMB! Yes,
the Germans were actually ahead of the U. S. in producing the
atomic bomb, by more than six months! And except for that
"accidental" bomb-hit on the very center of their A-bomb
production, WE WOULD HAVE LOST THE WAR!
But today we know that was no "accident." America was
spared from defeat only by a miracle from God!
But why? Why did God let us win? Why did He give us
this present armistice? For one purpose only, my dear co-workers
---and it's time we began to realize it---to allow time for the
very work He has called YOU and ME to DO! To allow time for the
last solemn WARNING MESSAGE to be thundered to our English-speaking
peoples! To allow time to proclaim to all the world the TRUE
