AND DESTROY THE UNITED STATES!
Any way you look at it, this is a WORLD-CRISIS far more
threatening than the world realizes. IT MEANS OUR TIME TO COMPLETE
CHRIST'S GREAT COMMISSION OF MATTHEW 24:14 and MARK 13:10 IS CUT
MUCH SHORTER!!! We may have another ten or twelve years--we may
have much less!
No, we cannot lay down on the job to which God Almighty
has called YOU and me, and leave it for our children to do! WE
must rise to meet this emergency. TIME IS SHORT! Do you ever
WONDER, and perhaps grumble a little, because the very WORK OF GOD
seems to be continually plunged into CRISIS AFTER CRISIS? I
wonder--do you criticize President Eisenhower because the U.S.
government is continually plunged into CRISIS AFTER CRISIS? Or,
did you complain because during the administrations of Presidents
Roosevelt and Truman the government of the United States was
plunged into CRISIS AFTER CRISIS?
The proclaiming of the GOVERNMENT OF GOD--the thundering
to the world of the GOSPEL of the KINGDOM OF GOD, which is the very
GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST--must also be continually plunged into
CRISIS AFTER CRISIS.
THIS WORK OF GOD IS IN A SERIOUS EMERGENCY CRISIS RIGHT
NOW!
We are already in the CHRISTMAS SHOPPING SEASON! Do you
realize what that means? It means that thousands, supposing they
are buying BIRTHDAY PRESENTS for CHRIST'S BIRTHDAY, are actually
engaging in a wild spending spree to TRADE GIFTS BACK AND FORTH
with relatives, friends, and business customers--WHILE THEY FORGET
ALTOGETHER ANY GIFT FOR CHRIST--NEGLECT GIVING THE GIFT THAT WOULD
GET HIS GOSPEL TO THE WORLD!
Do you realize where Christmas came from? The TRUTH is
astounding! I know that many of you realize this truth. Many of
you know that Christmas does NOT honor Christ's birthday at all--
that the Bible NOWHERE instructs Christians to honor Christ's
birthday--that it is actually a PAGAN RELIGIOUS custom FORBIDDEN in
the Bible--that it celebrates the birthday of SOL the SUN-god of
heathen worship--that NO ONE KNOWS WHEN CHRIST WAS BORN, except
that it definitely was NOT as late in the year as December.
If you have not already read it, why don't you write in,
by return mail--RIGHT NOW, before you lay this letter down--for our
free booklet, "The Plain Truth about Christmas."
LISTEN! Would it not be silly to hold a big birthday
party for some noted person--to make it a BIG occasion and plan for
it all year--and then, at the party, absolutely SHUN the noted
person in whose honor you are holding the party--give HIM no gifts
whatever--ignore him--and greet everybody else--and EXCHANGE
PRESENTS among all the guests? THAT IS WHAT MILLIONS ARE ACTUALLY
DOING RIGHT NOW TO CHRIST!!!
Don't you think that, IF you still believe in Christmas
