and therefore government propaganda, and are not so interesting to
the public, while the people over there find more interesting
programs on Radio Luxembourg; and 2) This tremendous-powered super
station comes in on all sets so loud and clear they can actually
heat it with better reception than their own local stations in
London and Paris! It will provide us with an audience of possibly
fifty to one hundred millions of people, HEARING CHRIST'S TRUE
GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM FOR THE FIRST TIME IN ALL THEIR LIVES!
We had planned to start this European campaign next year.
Now the opportunity apparently is open to start NOW! I shall
proceed to negotiate with their United States representatives in
New York immediately, but Dick assures me he arranged with the
station to hold this precious half hour of time for us.
Because of their tremendous power and vast listening
audience, they charge about twice as much as even the most powerful
Mexican stations. We will get very little financial help from
Europe. Their governments over there do not permit their people to
send much money, and in some cases virtually none, outside their
countries. It will have to be almost wholly financed BY YOU
CO-WORKERS HERE IN AMERICA!
But if the government in Washington can afford to send
BILLIONS of our tax dollars to Europe to provide them with
munitions to be later aimed back at us, cannot we manage to send
a few hundreds of dollars to Europe to preach to them THE TRUE
GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST?
What did Jesus say of the future? He said there would be
false christs, and false prophets preaching false gospels, yet
coming in HIS NAME, deceiving the whole world. BUT, down at the
time after world war had started at the very end of this age, (Mat.
24:3-14), He said, "And this GOSPEL OF THE KINGDOM shall be
preached in all the world for a witness unto ALL NATIONS; and then
shall the end (of this age) come!"
Co-Workers, Jesus has not commissioned you and me to
preach this Gospel merely to our own nation. It must now go for a
witness "UNTO ALL NATIONS." Five years ago Mrs. Armstrong and I
were in Europe making the first preliminary investigations and
plans for spreading the work of proclaiming this Gospel into
England and Europe. At that time it was, and always had been,
impossible to obtain radio time to reach the masses of people by
radio. I interviewed newspaper men, and began working out a plan
to reach the people through newspapers, and by mail. But we were
not yet ready.
Now, when at last we are ready. GOD HAS OPENED THE WAY.
In the tiny nation of Luxembourg, in the heart of Europe, this
gigantic super-powered station has been raised up. They have now
actually cleared a precious half hour of time for The WORLD
TOMORROW program to reach ALL EUROPE!
This is the biggest leap forward this work ever took.
Our men are over there now, visiting Europeans in the homes, on the
streets, in hotels, talking with them, learning their attitudes and
