most powerful radio stations on earth--has opened up one additional
period per week in the German language, beamed to reach all Germany
--even East Germany! As I write to you, I have just come to my
typewriter fresh from having listened to our German program, at the
time we have had since January, on Radio Luxembourg. It came in
strong and clear here in London.
As a matter of fact, I can now hear The WORLD TOMORROW here
in London over both Radio Luxembourg and Radio Monte Carlo, six out
of the seven days a week!
The summer is past. During this summer many HUNDREDS,
brought to Christ and real conversion through this great work in
all parts of the United States and Canada, have been baptized into
Christ by our own baptizing teams. During this summer, one
baptizing team, covering all the British Isles, has baptized scores
of new converts. During this summer our evangelistic team headed
by Roderick C. Meredith has held three dynamic campaigns in England
--in Bristol, in Birmingham, and in Manchester--with from 40 to 65
added for God's Kingdom in each campaign. And let me add that this
does not mean a mere "accepting Christ," or "professing Christ," or
"decision for Christ." It means full REPENTANCE of sin, and full
FAITH in Christ as Saviour not only from past sins, but from any
continuance in sin! It means a completely CHANGED LIFE! It means
complete CONVERSION, a change from the carnal to a spiritual MIND--
from a worldly to a Spirit-filled and Spirit-led LIFE. It means
being BEGOTTEN by God's Holy Spirit as a child of God.
When the full import of this kind of REAL conversion is
recognized, we see what a BOUNTEOUS HARVEST God has granted to His
servants in this great work this past summer! And though it has
been winter in Australia, several have been converted and baptized
on that continent. Our staff there is constantly expanding. We
now have two ordained ministers in Australia to counsel with and
help those who request it, beside an ever-growing office staff.
The PLAIN TRUTH now is printed in three editions. One, of
course, in Los Angeles and mailed out from Ambassador College Press
in Pasadena. The European edition is printed in London, and mailed
from Ambassador College Press in conjunction with the new
Ambassador College here. The third edition is printed in
Australia, and mailed from our Sydney offices.
As I write, preparations are rapidly nearing completion to
open the NEW Ambassador College here in England on October 14th.
The full quota of students has now been accepted--except that we
still could accept one or two additional girl students. Apparently
it has not been as customary for girls to obtain a college
education in England as in America, but it is just as necessary for
young women to receive an education as men--when we view life from
GOD'S point of view! Nevertheless, we do have a splendid group of
girls enrolled, though we still could make room for one or two
more.
As this great work expands--as it MUST constantly expand--so
also do the expenses of the work increase. And that, dear
Co-Workers, is YOUR very important PART in Christ's work!
