some little time, and read The PLAIN TRUTH and other literature,
and compared it with YOUR BIBLE, until you came to KNOW this is in
fact the true WORK OF GOD. Co-Workers, we dare not quit!
In Europe I saw PROPHECY IN RAPID DYNAMIC FULFILLMENT!
I tell you it is later than you think! I will report fully in The
PLAIN TRUTH and the next Co-Worker letter. YOU MUST KNOW WHAT I
SAW THERE!
In England, I was absolutely AMAZED at the interest
already generated in hearing God's truth on The WORLD TOMORROW
program which they hear on Radio Luxembourg, most powerful station
on earth. The INTENSE INTEREST shown at the six public meetings I
held in London, Manchester, Glasgow, Scotland, and Belfast,
Ireland, was an eye-opening revelation to me. WE HAVE NOT TAKEN
THE WORK GOD IS DOING THRU US IN GREAT BRITAIN SERIOUSLY ENOUGH!
I had my eyes opened to the fact that the work in Great
Britain can, and must grow as great in the next two or three years
as it is even now in the United States! We must reach many times
more people there than we do already---altho we are reaching many
hundreds of thousands there now! In the next PLAIN TRUTH I will
show you a picture of the very first person being baptized in
England, converted thru the broadcast over there. Pictures were
not taken of the others, but by next summer there will probably be
a hundred or more ready to be baptized. THE WORK THERE IS BEARING
MUCH GREATER FRUIT THAN WE REALIZED!
Co-Workers! Ought we not to praise God for this? The
angels of heaven are shouting for joy over one sinner that repents
---and already many have had their minds opened to God's truth, and
been convicted, and repented, as a result of this work in Britain--
-AS A RESULT OF THE TITHES AND OFFERINGS YOU HAVE PUT INTO GOD'S
WORK! And besides several hundreds of precious lives have been
converted and baptized in the United States this year.
Now let me tell you what happened. For twenty-one days
after you received my last letter, which I cabled from the ship on
the Atlantic Ocean after sailing from England, your response was
back up to the regular daily quota---but no more---so that our
business office was just barely able to "hang on," desperately, and
save us from being cut off the air.
In my last letter I told you about the network crisis,
and how I had telephoned Mr. Mattson, our business manager, from
Rome to plead with the network vice president to hold us on the
air. We were then five weeks behind---five weeks in which our
office had not been able to pay the broadcast expense. I learned
from New York that Mr. Mattson had been able to arrange to keep the
program on the air only by paying each week promptly PLUS one-tenth
of the previous five unpaid broadcasts, until paid out. Now, in
addition, in order to keep the network stations on the air thru the
summer, Mr. Mattson had been gradually getting behind with XEG,
XELO, and XERB and XERF. The last of September they had suddenly
demanded that all the unpaid balances be paid immediately, or we
would be thrown off the air.
