DON'T FORGET---we are desperately trying to stay on RADIO
every night or every day, and AROUND THE WORLD. My son Dick writes
from Europe that he is finding that once a week broadcasts over
there are not often enough to help people really find the truth as
they should. He is trying to find some way to reach them more
often.
I had a wonderful letter from two men in far-off INDIA, who
had been converted by our broadcast over Radio Ceylon, and want to
be baptized. I wanted SO MUCH to let you read that letter. It
seems to be misplaced. If I find it, will reprint it for you in a
later letter. But here are some more letters from far overseas!
FROM A SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENT IN INDIA: "Dear Brother
Armstrong, and fellow loved ones in Jesus: Greetings to you and all
others connected with the Lord's work. I do thank you very much
for all the booklets received from time to time. This has been a
blessing to my home, and especially to my boys in this school. I
covet your prayers for those boys. They often hear the Gospel and
a good clear Gospel here in this school (Indian boys). Pray that
many will give their hearts to Jesus, and come to the knowledge of
His saving power, and only way of salvation. Yes, in these days of
unrest and so many religious sects coming in, we have to ask God to
keep us true to His Holy Word and to Him. In this matter I must
say that your booklets have been a tremendous help to keep us on
the lines of TRUTH, ...so you see, God's Word and other helpful
subjects in your booklets are not in vain. Some day it will bring
forth fruit, as you and I pray for them. I do hear your message
quite clear each week over Radio Ceylon....We in India are now
finding it difficult to preach the Gospel outright, so our only
hope is to leave God's Word in print, and God will do the rest.
Once again, I ask God's blessing on you and the rest, and thanks to
you all in His precious and worthy name, Jesus our Saviour."
CO-WORKERS, DO YOU GRASP the overwhelming importance of OUR
WORK---and what your tithes and offerings are doing in INDIA?
India is the second largest nation on earth, in number of people.
More than two and a half TIMES as many people as in the United
States. Most people in southern India speak ENGLISH. More people
speak and understand English in India than in England, believe it
or not. When Prime Minister Nehru wants to talk to the people of
the southern half of India the only language he can talk to them in
is English. This school director in India says it's difficult to
preach the Gospel outright, in India. India is a pagan, not a
Christian country. He can't do much outright preaching right there
on the spot. But WE are able to get right into the homes of
multiplied THOUSANDS in India, where they understand our language,
and PREACH THE TRUE GOSPEL without anyone to stop us!
SHALL WE DROP A POWERFUL WORK LIKE THIS, because there's not
enough money to keep it going? YOUR HEART-RENDING PRAYERS could
change the situation and start money rolling in sufficiently to
save the work!
Tuesday 1 PM.---I have just gone off the air on the local
broadcast, and here are some letters coming in from the second
